It was before eight pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and I were resting discussing the weekend's sports, ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Ballintoy and put the wrong fuel in her diesel buff Cadillac Fleetwood hire car by mistake. She was quite irritated apparently, crying "I can not believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, since it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could reach her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home satisfied and much less worried. One more job in County Antrim done well in my books!

• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded.
