Incorrect Fuel in a Car Box Hill, Surrey

It was around 7pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were resting there talking over the recent football, prepared for the 6th call to come in. Finally we got a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Box Hill and filled petrol in a diesel red Cadillac CTS hire car in error. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home satisfied and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Surrey well done in my opinion!

Petrol inside a Diesel Vehicle Box Hill, Surrey

I am reminded of an article in a magazine last year and the following anecdote was virtually identical. This man had borrowed his friendly neighbour's teal Nissan Pathfinder in Box Hill and had wrongly filled up with the wrong fuel. "I just can't picture exactly what she's going to think of me when she finds out! I obtained her vehicle as mine was stuck in the garage, and I drove to get various items. After I was done I decided I might fill up the vehicle as a method of saying thanks, and then realised with horror that I'd used the wrong fuel," the Surrey gentleman told us when we arrived. Thankfully we were able to drain the engine and fix the situation readily and quickly. He was subsequently able to take the vehicle back to his neighbour, and return the favour by way of ensuring the car had a full fuel tank of the proper fuel!
