• Supermarket Fuel 30 Nov 2007 (Forum)
  There are 3 diesels in the family - and all of us have nnoticed that when we use supermarket fuel (especially Tesco) we get 3 to 5 mpg LESS than we do when we fill up with Shell. Fortunately, our Shell garage sells at the same price (sometimes cheaper - even with Tesco 5p off a litre) than the local Tesco and Morrisons, but I've tended to use Tesco simply to get Clubcard points.

• Derv AND 2 star mix up 2 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  As reported in the local press this week, the following occurred at a supermarket in Surrey. Diesel was delivered into their Unleaded tanks. Later admitted that \"we did have a problem with the diesel as well.\" I assume that was Petrol delivered into the Diesel tanks. \"customers who had diesel put into petrol cars will be fully compensated but if it happened the other way round it is different\" \"If more than 20 per cent of petrol was filled in to a diesel tank then it would cause damage to the car\" A customer complained after getting fuel that \"it sounded really weird\" so went to their garage who told her not to drive it.
