Formula,
Could she have filled with the wrong fuel? It seems they now have diesel where they didn't before. People will often pull up to "the same old pump" which may now be the diesel pump. A station near me has 2 double sided pumps on each island, 4 islands (4 cars per island) and one pump in one island is diesel. I have seen cars pull up to the wrong pump. Someone usually stops them before they get the wrong fuel. The owner did put an added sign to warn "diesel only" but that doesn't stop everybody.
