'I jumped in the car to start it up, and it just started sputtering. Lights started flashing, and there was a giant puff of white smoke.'
drivers spoke to WOIO after their vehicles reportedly experienced issues after visiting a Circle K on Chester Road in Avon, Ohio.
Bauchmoyer told reporters with WOIO that he had to have his Jeep towed to the dealership, where a mechanic informed him that there was diesel in his gas tank and in the fuel lines. When speaking to the station, Bauchmoyer said that he wanted to be compensated by Circle K after repairs put him out $1,100, not including the cost of the tow and a rental.
Circle K confirmed to WOIO that diesel was mistakenly added to the unleaded storage tanks and unleaded was added to the diesel storage tanks in what is known as a "cross drop."
