He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the issue by putting more Diesel on top.

This was the graveyard shift. It was close to sunrise and noone was about. It had been quite uneventful so far, and Paul and I were loafing around browsing a couple of old newspapers. That was an uncommon peaceful hour. Actually it was that calm that the instant my mobile ultimately rang it made me start! The voice told me: "I completed my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the Red Hill by mistake". We told him to inform us where the vehicle was and we left, reaching him 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two ladies at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.
