previa - filled with WRONG fuel

The toyota Previa 2.4 super dlax.

what actually happen on 2nd July 2009...

went to filling station. somehow the station was a bit congested and we were sooo deeeeep into discussion. The attended asked... and i replied: BND10 saja.

She then opened the fuel cap and filled the car. we paid and leave, otw to Escapade (Japanese restaurant to celeb "mummy's birthday"

Approximaletly 5km from the station, the car slows down and losing power and eventually stopped on the roadside

THEN we realise we just filled the car with WONG fuel! The previa drinks Ron98/shell unleaded and we just filled her with DIESEL! ... no wonder why she drunk on roadside.

Called the 24-7 on 2247448 and asked for towing truck. 15mins later the truck arrived. Because its already 830pm and knowing that no workshop open late... asked the towing truck to take the previa home.

In the morning. The same truck arrived and take the previa to AWS in Pandan.

Luckly it didn't take them long to fix. By afternoon on the same day, the car completed and tested OK. They simply blow the diesel out, filled with unleaded and keep the engine runingf or awhile to remove excess. No fuel filter required to be changed. And the good thing as well... it only costs me BND45.

learning: I am gonna stick a sticker on fuel cap with "RON98/UNLEADED ONLY"
