Bad news. I always double-check at the hose end in case the wrong hose was in the sitting in the pump, i.e. two hoses were switched. As long as you didn't drive off I guess you'll get away with it, minus the cost of the fuel and the time spent draining it. Do they let you drain it in the petrol station? -

Mrs MM did it a couple of months ago. The bloke from green flag said something like 100,000 incidents every year in the UK."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment
