Now I'm not that hot for doing the job weekends, and a while back was the same. I had just come away from the wife and kids after having a lovely dinner cooked by the missus, and I was off to help a fellow after he filled the wrong fuel in his Outlane. He was somewhere nearby so it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on stuff and did not realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any kind of problems simply by driving it?" I explained generally there shouldn't be problems and that also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained as quickly as possible. Obviously I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and then one more pleased customer was able to continue his ride without any subsequent bother. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make earning a living on Sundays a tiny bit easier to me!
