Wrong Fuel in Car Ingrow - Petrol in Diesel Car Ingrow

I had a terrific evening fishing on the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a young couple who were away. They had pulled over after adding diesel into their Ingrow, and were around an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed while I listened to the gal telling her man off for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this situation occurs frequently and that it's actually nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he still got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyway, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
