Wrong Fuel in Car Hartshead Moor Side - Petrol in Diesel Car Hartshead Moor Side

I am not ever very excited about carrying out work Sundays, and the other day was the same. I had only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a tasty dinner prepared for us by the wife, and I was en route to help a gentleman because he put the wrong petrol in his Hartshead Moor Side. He was situated nearby hence I was on scene almost immediately. Just as I arrived at the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise God! I had my concentration on other stuff and didn't ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted any damage through running it?" I stated generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained as soon as possible. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and then yet another delighted motorist had the ability to carry on with his journey without any bother.
