- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a bright Wednesday and I was en route to assist an older lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Prince Royd. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded along a country lane en route to pay a visit to her family. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she said, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel seeing that I had just purchased it a short while ago because my other car, which I had had for more than 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious lady!
