I have to say that in all the misfuels that I have dealt with(theres been a few ) its always been petrol in a diesel and never the other way round

It is predominantly Petrol in Diesel

Out of around 70 jobs this month I think only about 9 or 10 were the other way around

Mind you, the new micro sized cars no longer have the smaller filler neck as by not tooling it and fitting it they can reduce the build costs so we are getting more of them every month

So about 5 jobs per working day.....   Maybe I should be looking at a career change....

Not 5 per working day... We're a 24/7 business That is over 2 areas though But it seems to have averaged quite well across the 2

I nearly had a friend of mine call you out for 'veg oil in a diesel in cold weather' .. I bet that would have been 1 out of 70

Just light a fire under the tank.  if the whole car goes up, well, it was only a tractor.

  Didn't think of that.. his method to get it all out was quite ingenius I thought, although it meant draining the full tank;

(This is on a 2.2DTi btw) Popped the inspection cover over the fuel pickup/return pipes in the boot, attached a length of hose to the feed pipe and put the other end in a jerry can (or, knowing him, a bucket) and hooked the compressor up to the return pipe..

10-15%petrol mixed in should sort that problem.

I think I mentioned before about a pump add-in that is part of an EU research project that utilises the pump return line (the pipe that senses the fill indication) to detect the fuel type in the tank before starting the pump.

Question is, will the fuel companies adopt it....

I doubt misfuelling costs them anything. Quite the contrary, in fact, so I guess that's a no. 

What we need is a system in the car being able to sniff the nozzle that's just been inserted.

Agreed... But not for the next 15 years or so please
