Just a quick warning to be careful when filling your car - make sure the pump attendant grabs the right hose. Some wingnut put R200 of petrol into my diesel tank this morning and in no time my 3.5l v6 diesel was idling like a poorly tuned tractor and sounded like a diesel truck when accelerating. The episode cost me 4.5k to drain and flush the system, test the motor etc. and check everything's within spec. Luckily the only damage was to my bank account.  Of course the filling station deleted the video coverage of the pump in question and because I paid cash I have no proof I was at their pump. Fuckers!
