Wrong Fuel in Car Lane Bottom - Petrol in Diesel Car Lane Bottom
I am certainly not so interested in doing the job on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I had only just departed the family after eating a superb roast cooked by the wife, and I was off to sort out a guy after he filled the wrong fuel in his Lane Bottom. He was located nearby therefore I arrived there rapidly. Just as I pulled up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Praise God! I stupidly had my concentration on other things and failed to perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I inflicted any kind of problems through starting it?" I explained there probably should not be harm and that I'd drain the wrong fuel as soon as possible for him. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another satisfied customer could continue on his journey without the fuss. The gentleman could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make working on Sundays just that tiny bit easier for me personally!

We a few weeks ago got a call from a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his Lane Bottom. He had conked out on the road. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't discover the predicament up until it ground to a halt. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning again. I was happy due to both your call-out time and your charges". As you can imagine we got there rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. On arrival the fuel drainer said the driver was raging, but was grinning his face off afterwards.

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
