Let\u2019s face it\u2014mistakes happen. Many times, we find ourselves embarrassed by them, but it\u2019s important that they can occur to anyone and everyone. That\u2019s right, mistakes are the great social equalizer that unites the social classes. While that analogy might be a bit of a stretch, it\u2019s no more unbelievable than filling your gasoline-powered truck with diesel fuel. But, this happens, and it happens more often than you might think. So, what happens if you make this mistake? Well, we\u2019re here to find out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not all fossil fuels are alike. While you might have noticed that diesel fuel is right next to the 87 octane and unleaded at most gas pumps, there\u2019s a great deal of difference that separates the two. Gasoline is refined a great deal and has a consistency that\u2019s closer relation to water. (Though drinking it can be fatal.) Diesel fuel has a much thicker consistency. Diesel engines are built very differently than ones powered by gasoline. As a result, gasoline engines cannot run on diesel fuel, and attempting to do so will result in your vehicle stalling out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, don\u2019t panic. Mistakes can be made but they can also be rectified. Here\u2019s a step-by-step procedure if you happen to make this mistake, that while uncommon, is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
