Wrong Fuel in Car Rowley Hill - Petrol in Diesel Car Rowley Hill

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to assist an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Rowley Hill. I'd been told she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I got to the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was working she said, "I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a week ago because my other one, which I had for in excess of 30 years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful lady!

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
