It was after ten pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting going over the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Llandevaud and filled petrol in her diesel modern Cadillac STS-V rental by mistake. She was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and a lot less concerned. Another job in Newport well done in my books!

Wrong Fuel in Car Llandevaud - Llandevaud Misfuelling
The owner of a teal Isuzu i-370 was regretfull that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle when he got as far as the street and it spluttered and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put the wrong fuel in my diesel vehicle," is what he shared with us the initial time he called. In all honesty, when he initially telephoned us he said he would like to shop around, but he called us back shortly because our rate and on-scene times were the most appropriate. Naturally, our engineer had him once again carrying out his deliveries within the period we'd cited.

A gentleman had broken down off a street in Llandevaud. His work's BMW M Roadster engine had ceased operating and he'd no idea what was awry right up until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten zero sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason why.

- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
