Gosh FUCK! I did the STUPIDEST thing this morning!

[CutMeMick]

My uncle once drove with hose still in his gas tank....
He didn't notice it until he was on the freeway he had to pull over to get it off.

Even more stupid.

Trucks, Cars, whatever can burn "gasoline" or what we call petrol.

It's only gasoline or petrol cars/trucks that can't burn diesel.

You just wasted a lot of time money and effort

That happened to me too with my scooter bike. But it wasn't my fault. The young inexperience gasoline boy fukked up. I was gonna punch him in the mouth, but he's lucky his sister is a good friend of mine.

Thats not true Donny. It is very hard on trucks to burn a significant amount of gasoline in them.

If the tank is not fully empty, the gasoline (assuming its the same as European petrol) will burn well with the diesel.

Some plant hire and plant sales often allow petrol to go through their plant as it cleans the inside of the engine and the emission of "black smoke" is reduced, allowing the appearence of a healthy engine to prospective buyers/employers.

We've all had those mornings,your tired,you arent thinking,your trying to run on auto pilot.
When I ran a printing press,I had quite a few of those mornings,your allready loading up the black ink,while groggily not noticing this rush job calls for PMS #253
In ALOT of ways running the gym fits my normal hours anyway,its late,Im up anyway,might as well get in to a screaming fit with a promoter

You did the right thing. I manage a small fleet of vehicles with a mix of gasoline and diesel vehicles and always worry that someone will do this, BUT hope that thay are smart enough to realise the mistake before driving off and calling me to tell me the vehicle is running bad. Everyone makes mistakes don't stress.

A couple of years ago I saw someone rip the entire front of the bowser... We have LPG gas here, and the pump screws onto your tank. A ladies son went in to pay, and the lady just got back into her car after filling up. The boy ran out, didn't notice the hose still attached to the car, and they drove off, riping half the bowser apart and dragging it a couple of yards through the gas station... It was funny as hell...


The worst i've done lately is accidently fill up with the premium premium gasoline instead of the cheap stuff, on the weekend when it is most expensive... So ended up paying a near fortune for a full tank of gas.

I've seen that happen (but it's usually the women drivers who do that).

Something else I hope never happens to me.
