I was hauling a diesel can in the trunk of my Ford Focus, another driver caused me to hit the brakes and some the diesel from can spilled in my carpeted trunk.

I power washed the carpet (removed from the car) in the trunk of the Focus and I’m letting it dry in the garage. I cleaned the inside of the trunk with water and vinegar mix. The inside of the trunk does not smell. However the removable carpet does. Time hit wrecking yards for new carpet for the trunk?

I have a 50 HP Case tractor, which why I had diesel can in the car to begin with.

The Focus will be given away to a neighbor by Christmas when I take delivery of my new Tacoma pick up with 6 speed manual transmission. 

The new new owner of the Ford out of Focus should not complain about the diesel smell on a free car, right? 

Any quick tips?
