WTF she didn’t notice the price increase? gas is 4.01 and diesel is 4.55? Or the smell? or the odd colored handle? She should have went to delta and used the red handle ---

I watched someone mix some diesel into a field car once (by accident while drunk) and even with a mix of diesel/gas the engine seized within 30 seconds. ---

> [@Freek](#): > > I know it’s hard to remember people. But please stay on topic in the autos section. lol honest to God I forgot there was an autos section. One summer when I was working for a home builder a poor well meaning fuckup couldn’t get a chainsaw to run until another guy helped him out by figuring out he put diesel in it. So chainsaws don’t run on diesel either. Although I feel like a diesel chainsaw would be badass. ---

I think a torque monster saw that could chew through a redwood at 30rpm would rule, but maybe you’re just not man enough? :ohyeah: ---
