Going back many many years...to about 1983 when I had my Charger.
Was filling it up and a guy pulled in next to me with a very nice XD 351 sedan...yellow, lowered, Globe mags...really really nice. He started filling it up and I finished and went inside to pay for my fuel. A short time later he suddenly stopped and shouted "F*#K!!!!", and shoved the hose back into the bowser and rushed inside. I wondered what was wrong, and he said "I've just put some diesel in my car!", and the attendant asked "How much?". The guy said "Nearly twenty bucks worth...it was nearly empty!". Keep in mind this was back when petrol was only about 36 cents a liter and diesel was at the time much cheaper than petrol...about 25 to 30 cents I think...so he nearly had a full tank of diesel. The were figuring out how to drain it and fix it up when I left. About an hour later I was sitting at the lights and had picked up my girlfriend. At the opposite set of lights was the yellow XD, and I told her about it. The car could be heard running raggedly, and when he took off it left behind it a massive white cloud of exhaust smoke coming out the twin pipes like a James Bond smokescreen as it coughed and roared across the intersection and down the road... ![]() |
