So a local grocery with gas pumps accidentally put diesel in one of the regular pumps. The news said it was about an hour before they figured out the error and several people had filled up. I'm guessing the error was discovered due to disabled cars stacking up outside the filling area.

How far would you get with diesel in a regular engine??

I know older cars would just keep going 1977 Mercury couger albit they ran like crap and smoked and even with only putting a few gallons in to get home and realising what I had done in just a few miles and stop lights filled the tank with gas a few hours later ,,no matter the car still ran crappy for a very long time after that and always smelled funny no idea what the new injection cars would do i cant amagine it would be good hahaha somebody has a bill coming
