After getting off to a good start on the road to Algeciras, Spain, _____ made the mistake of adding unleaded gasoline to their diesel-fueled car. Their ensuing car problems cost them valuable time, resulting in their elimination.

Question :
 Name the team ?

I'm not sure....is it season 1?  I want to say that's the place where the Gutsy Grannies were Philiminated.  Am I mixing up two different seasons?

I called them the not a chance in hell team.  {l{

Question: What was the closest 1st/2nd place finish at the final mat? (I don't know the answer but am curiously hoping someone does) And no one may know because of editing.

this is what wikepedia has  </]

In the final footrace to the finish, Tara & Wil had the lead but had been outpassed by Chris & Alex. This marked the closest finish in The Amazing Race history.

Speaking of which: go to Chris' LA Finals photo album. The puzzle: identify the hotel used for the final cut teams. Some web searching will be needed, but all the clues necessary to ID the hotel are in those photos.

Oswald & Danny was the easy part. Locating the bungee was a little harder. I think it's the Nevis Highwire, but the website doesn't advertise the TAR connection.
