Incorrect Fuel in a Vehicle Lympstone, Devon

It was 6pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the weekend's golf results, prepared for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Lympstone and filled petrol in a diesel sky blue Hyundai Accent hire car in error. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably can happen. She managed to get the car to a protected area and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so anxious. Another job in Devon well done in my opinion!

Tuesday's call was to a crew of teens who were driving to some local music festival, and had accidentally misfuelled their metallic grey Smart Forfour. They were fortunately only not far from Lympstone so our engineer ought to be with them in less than an hour. As we arrived he spotted that the customer's family car was filled with every kind of things. It's the first time he had ever come across a family car so completely packed! There were wellies, camping kit, dresses, bags but also everything else. I am amazed they can really look past the back window! At any rate, the customer blurted out "This is my parent's car and if it's been wrecked I would be in genuine trouble!". Luckily for us our engineer has handled similar circumstances on tons of occasions and any of our team would be able to get it restored in no time. As always, we remove the wrong fuel from the car and the group are ready to get on with their outing in Devon. Can't recall the last festival my spouse and I went to, I will have to see if the wife would fancy Glastonbury any time soon!
