Re: [diesel_mercedes] You're never going to believe this...she's running fine...Guess why

 

Good lesson though because every now and then with the hoses all at one pump, we can all go to sleep and do that very same thing. Bet it will be a long time before anyone sleeping in your bed does it again though. PS-that is what the "sniff" test is all about. Gas and diesel to smell differently. And, as someone said, "at least you got a clean tank" out of the deal.

So are you ready for this??? 

It was GAS!!!!!

I pulled up to the correct pump...Kevin jumped out and in his excitement he dumped $50 of GAS into my diesel MB! 

I found the receipt and thought it was weird that it said "Eth Reg 10%".  Kevin drove by the station yesterday morning and realized what HE had done. 

He drained the tank, put in fresh DIESEL and she runs great!  He's coming home tonight, we'll drop off the exhaust tomorrow morning then I'll go with him to work, get my car and head to Dan the Muffler man and I should be good to go.

He's still got to install the bushing for the front and I need to order that boot for the back that fell apart when we brushed against it on Sunday. 

But as far as mechanically, it's ready!!!!!!!

WOW is Kevin happy now.  Me too.
