Wrong Fuel in Car Nab Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Nab Hill
I had appreciated a fantastic day hiking during my holiday and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I was en route to help a young couple who were holidaying. They'd broken down after filling diesel into their Nab Hill, and the car was around half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this goes on on daily basis and that it's really nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor lad. At any rate, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would ask me if I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!
