Wrong Fuel in Car Woodhall Hills - Petrol in Diesel Car Woodhall Hills
This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was around dawn and noone was stirring. It had become quite dead so far, and John and I were relaxing browsing a number of old magazines. It was an uncommon tranquil moment. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that when the telephone rang it made me start! The voice on the other end stated: "I've just completed my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the Woodhall Hills". I asked him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we headed out, ending up no more than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we spotted two young women on the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

It was just after six pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! James and me were sitting there commenting on the recent footy, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Woodhall Hills hire car by mistake. She was somewhat agitated apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home contented and much less anxious. A misfuel correction done well in my opinion!
