It was around 10 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were seated discussing the recent rugby rankings, waiting for the next job that day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Kirkby and put the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT hire car. She was quite affected apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!"

Fuel Drain Kirkby - Kirkby Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a fantastic day fishing during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to help a new couple on vacation in Kirkby. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their Ford, and were about an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled while I heard to the wife berating her husband for turning out to be so daft. "How could you actually manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this comes to pass quite frequently in Merseyside and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he yet still had an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and pondered on what my wife would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I'd never live it down!
