Wrong Fuel in Car Pool - Petrol in Diesel Car Pool
It was just after 9 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and I were seated there commenting on the sports, waiting for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage and put petrol in a diesel Pool rental. The poor lady was very troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the car into a safe space and, because it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off satisfied and much less apprehensive. A job well done in my mind!
