Jet and the Supermarkets and the small independent fuel retailers don't have their own refineries, they buy on the spot markets.

What can happen is that Jet will send in a Contractor to pick up fuel from Grangemouth (Scotland's distribution centre) and they may not use a tank clean to the fuel they are picking up ie last trip it was diesel, this time it's unleaded. It should be clean, but that's my theory why I always use Shell
