    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there going over the golf rankings, waiting around for the sixth call that day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Kelcliffe rental car. The poor lady was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe area and, since it was only a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and much less concerned. Yet another job well done in my mind!
