Wrong Fuel in Car Sundridge - Petrol in Diesel Car Sundridge

It was just after five pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a rainless night, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and me were resting there talking over the sports rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Sundridge rental car. The unfortunate thing was very distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could get to the lady quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. One more job well done in my opinion!

Contamination with AdBlue or Water
