Default I'm such a tool, diesel BlackBird anyone?

Put diesel in the bike today...

Not much, only a litre but the bike had been on the reserve light for about 20 miles so I put another £10 of petrol in and rode home.

Just drained the tank and the carbs, ran it for a few minutes with some new petrol and just put the air box and tank back on.

What a dunce, I can now no longer take the micky of daft people who do this

NNnnnnnooooooo!

I put petrol in the car the other day. Absolutely gutted. £50 unleaded, £248 drain fee, £50 diesel. I blame the bike.

I also slapped £20 of lead free in my diesel Peugot the other day. I then drove 12 miles home before realising what I'd done (it ran but it was a bit knocky!!). I put half a pint of semi synth 10/40 in the fuel filler then turned round and drove cautiously another 6 miles to a local garage and put 50 quids worth of diesel in on top of it. It's been running perfectly ever since.
