I've been dreading typing this up.

Short version: tractor is back and fine.


Dread part:
Perhaps I have the China flu and lost my sense of smell, as I accidentally filled the tank with gasoline.

If a tanker of gasoline had been mistakenly delivered to the stations diesel tanks, it would have been news. Its one of the busiest stations on the KP.

Only explanation is that I took my yellow diesel jug, to put diesel in it for my diesel tractor, and had a major brain fart and filled the jug with gasoline. Did not smell it as gas even after getting it on my sleeve changing the fuel filter..

The shop drained the tank, put a couple gallons of diesel in and it started and ran fine. I've since used it several times with out a hiccup and have refueled.

Moral of the story: don't be a dumb ass.
