Wrong Fuel in Car Wrotham Heath - Petrol in Diesel Car Wrotham Heath
It was before 6 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were resting there discussing the recent rugby results, ready for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. In due time we received a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Wrotham Heath rental car by mistake. The poor thing was quite troubled it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to find the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and less stressed. Another fuel drain well done in my opinion!
