Wrong Fuel in Car Walsden - Petrol in Diesel Car Walsden
It was about ten pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting there discussing the golf results, at the ready for the sixth telephone call to arrive. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station and put petrol in a diesel Walsden lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and that these things do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, since it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the lady right away. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less worried. One more fuel drain well done in my books!

I had a terrific evening hiking on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I set off to help a new couple who were holidaying. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Walsden, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl telling off her husband for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this situation occurs all the time and that it's in reality nothing to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I would never hear the end of it!
