Years ago in Tassie stopped at a servo in Roseberry on the west coast and parked with the tank right next to the diesel pump.
Paid for the fuel and as I was pulling up out of the town the truck started to splutter. Sure enough the servo had filled it up with unleaded.
Rolled back to the servo, got up the manager who promptly drained the tank about 50/50 petrol/diesel into his underground petrol tank. Must have been some smelly cars running around for awhile.
Busgo. Did you hear that the owner of I think it was 6 BP stations around the Qld NSW boarder got done for selling 91 octane through his Ultimate bowsers. Evidently he'd been doing it for sometime before being sprung. Didn't hear the washup but I'd reckon BP would've dumped him after that.
