We a few weeks ago got a call from a guy who had put the wrong fuel in his Bracken Hill. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "It was incredible how speedy you were in sending somebody out to help me after I mistakenly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you". Of course we were on-scene rapidly and purged the engine after flushing the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the customer was scowling, but was grinning his face off when we finished.
