It was before 10 pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were resting there talking about the golf, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Crabtree and filled petrol in her diesel Fiat lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away satisfied and less worried. One more job in West Sussex done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Vehicle Misfuel Crabtree - Crabtree Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Wednesday and we were en route to help an old lady who put petrol in her diesel Honda in Crabtree. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a rural lane along the way to see her godchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she explained, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only got it a week back because my former car, which I'd had for in excess of 30 years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a precious West Sussex lady!

A lady from Crabtree with a full car of little ones in her diesel Mercedes had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She called us crying and genuinely distraught as she had never wrong fuelled before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that all should be ok and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't ruined.
