Wrong Fuel in Car Chatham - Petrol in Diesel Car Chatham
A young lady with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Chatham had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She called us weeping and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that all should be ok and that she would be ready to go very quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the youngsters in the back."
Wrong Fuel Doctor Chatham - Fuel Rescue Chatham
It truly was the graveyard shift. It was around 2 in the morning and almost noone was around. It had been rather uneventful so far, and Paul and I were sitting perusing a few old articles. This was an uncommon tranquil time. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the moment the phone finally rang it made me start! The motorist on the phone stated: "I have completed my night shift and foolishly put petrol in a diesel Chatham by mistake". I got him to inform us just where he was situated and we left, ending up only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. While we were coming back to the depot we found two girls on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their elation.
