though im not sure they will like him
i wrote a nice email to customer services at BP sugesting there naming of there petrol ( i sound like quentin wilson
), saying that i was a plank and filled up with ultimate diesel in myn cossie as i never heard of it as i dont own a diesel but my local BP dont sell ultimate deisel either, just ultimate hence why i never checked as i had no reason it said ultimate and the diesel pump was on the other side with the unleaded in the middle blah blah blah
they have sent me a letter back ( remember this was tuesday, sent a email on wednesday evening when i had a spare moment from browing passionford
, i recived in on friday and it was dated on the 10th too and they have said its clearly stated its diesel on the pump and the handle and the marketing colours are made so theres no mistake ( was reading here thinking this is a fook off letter at this point
), BP will not refund you the formula of ultimate you placed in ypur tank but as a gesture of good faith were are wiling to pay for any hardware damage that your engine may have recived and the drainage costs, flushing costs and all parts including labour and vat, all i gotta do is send em a reciept for the purchase to confirm it was diesel i stuck in the car and all the invoices for all the work carried out
thing is i never got a receipt ( i own a cossie and am always in petrol stations, dont wanna keep track of what i spend on the car as i will just cry), i stoped reading at that point and started to hit the work bench in the kitchen, fortunatly my missus took the letter and caried on reading, if i get in contact with the petrol station i can get a copy of the invoice and send em that instead or a credit card/debit card bill
now i gotta drive to east mayes ( where the fook is that, this was found by luck
) and then i can get payed out for all me parts
now what can i buy and stick on the invoce that could have been damaged by diesel
anyone know, i got plugs im gonna order off stu, fuel filter i need a invoice for if anyones got one
, i fitted the one i bought off pops but he dont do invoices, well i payed fook all for it
, what else, would i need a oil change if diesel was stuck in it
help me out
good on BP though
, ill go back there again when i need anymore diesel

Remember a lass at work filled her new (petrol) fiat stilo with deisel, then sent a letter complaining that it wasn't marked properly, she got £10 worth of petrol vouchers!

excessive det caused by running your high performance vehicle on diesel damaged the cylinder head, pistons, block, valves etc etc...... I see an engine rebuild courtesy of BP!!
seriously though I dont know why they didnt tell you to fuck off! its your own fault no-one elses! good on em for offering to pay for draining it etc, I used to work for a breakdown company and we charged between £120 and £180 to drain and dispose of contaminated fuel!

you will need a new wide band lambda sensor
as the diesel will have fooked you old one, you will need a new sensors in your plenum, it may have damaged your fuel pump/filter and injectors as they were all not designed for diesel service
HTH
Pugo
PS i am sure stu will find a few things that may/will have been damaged
