He was out of gas in his Tacoma and accidentally filled his truck with diesel from his company fuel pump. I told him to siphon all the diesel out of the tank, fill up with gas, pull the plugs, turn over the engine for 20-30 seconds to clear all the diesel from the injectors and fuel line, reinstall the plugs and he should be good to go.

Hopefully this will work for him. :D

Did you tell him to save the diesel for you? :D


I can totally see getting gas into a diesel, cause the pump will fit.......but how the hell did he do that? Just start shooting a "fountain" in there?

He works (and delivers) for a fuel company, so they may not have standard nozzles on their pumps. I did ask him to give me the diesel, but they had already put it in their mixed fuel tank for reprocessing.

Oh ok. Good luck to him!
