Why Me , WHY.......

At least diesel in a gas engine isn't as bad as the other way 'round!

I could tell you a story about a friend who filled his Slingshot with diesel --- realized it before he started, got the tanked drained and refilled with good gas.

A “Friend” ?

I know a person that put 4 or 5 gallons in his hot rod he just stopped and finished filling up with high test 93 oct. then went in the station and bought 2 bottles of octane boost and dumped in the tank. It smelled kind of funny at the exhaust but did not have a problem.

Growing up i worked at a gas station / auto garage and the old mechanic would put a 1/2 gallon of diesel in every tank of gas he ran in his old truck. Why? No idea he just said it kept everything lubed. I also worked with a guy that they filled his diesel tank with reg gas. The station ended up having his truck towed and tank emptied as he realized before he started it due to the price difference when he went to pay. As stated above better diesel in a gas tank than gas in a diesel

diesel will act like a sludge/carbon cleaner

My neighbor's son filled his 250 ford with gas it started spitting and popping but he did get it back to the house. I put a hose to the bottom of the tank and put just enough pressure on the tank for the gas to run out. If I remember right we changed the filter/s and cranked it up and he went on his vacation.

Not guilty that time... I have picked the wrong one a time or two.

At most Stations pump handles for gas are RED, and diesel Green, at most BP stations all pump handles green.

I know a dumb ass that stood and pumped 10gal of 93 in his Dodge Dually w/Cummins as it sat there running with the low fuel light on!!!!! Yeah it happens.
