Default A lot of cars over here are dieselpowered.

Much better mileage, and diesel is cheaper over here. Except for taxes on dieselcars. They are way much higher than petrol/gasoline cars, so most people only drive diesel cars if they drive a lot.

Default There was a local Arco in Socal that pumped diesel into the main unleaded tank

and they had to end up paying to have alot of new motors installed.

Default no no.. u have to put a bag of sand in the fuel tank first and try cranking it.. it will clean the

fuel lines and then u put in diesel .. it is like flushing your system before different fuel can be used u know...
