Wrong Fuel in Car Tingley - Petrol in Diesel Car Tingley

A man conked out on a road had to have a fuel drain roughly a month back. His Tingley was stopped on the road after he had put in the wrong fuel. He was relaxed when he called us but somewhat anxious to move his car off the road because he was generating considerable traffic. We arrived within a quarter-hour since our drainer had just completed his previous job. He said, "I do not believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and stopped right here! My car was not running well I had to pull over and after that it just cut out."
