You might want to call the station where you got fuel and let them know you only made it 10 miles after getting fuel. If they had a supply problem, you are likely not the only one effected. Sometimes they admit it and cover repairs caused by bad fuel. I don't know that you got bad fuel, but it is possible.

Had some friends rent a diesel car in Europe, they filled up with gasoline and had to pay for repairs..
