No red diesel would have made him a pikey - optimax makes him slightly better off

Well it might help to dilute it a little but beer also dehydrates you so prehaps a bit of both?

I always get coolant mixture in my mouth when working under cars after removing hoses and it is still dripping off the block, one drip of that stuff tastes crazy! Proper strong taste!

You DO actually realise that you're not supposed to induce vomitting after ingesting petrol, and that you should seek immediate medical assistance?

Harmful if swallowed. Aspiration into the lungs caused by vomiting is harmful and can be fatal.
