Incorrect Fuel in Car Lytchett Matravers, Dorset

It was around 7pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing there talking about the recent footy, waiting for the seventh telephone call that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Lytchett Matravers and put petrol in her diesel cream Jeep Compass hire car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Dorset done well in my mind!

Petrol into a Diesel Car Lytchett Matravers, Dorset

A relatively concerned driver phoned us from the Shell petrol station at Dorset to inform us that he had put unleaded in his diesel winter grey BMW M6; he wasn't exactly sure how he'd done it. We explained to him it was not a problem and soon enough had our specialist with him to clean the incorrect fuel from his car. Having purged the bad fuel, he was soon back rolling again. He told us; "I am truly dumbfounded I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the chap who was sent to take care of the fuel drain was very pleasant - he did not make me feel silly."
