Wrong Fuel in Car Middleton - Petrol in Diesel Car Middleton
A driver with her children in her diesel Middleton had filled her vehicle with £30 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She phoned us weeping and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that all would be alright and that she would be back on the road in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the kids in the back."
