Wrong Fuel in Car Longfield - Petrol in Diesel Car Longfield
The driver of a Longfield was regretful that he had put unleaded in his diesel car when he got as far as the road and it coughed and broke down. "I've gone and put unleaded in my diesel vehicle," is what he said to us the initial time he called. To be honest, when he first contacted us he said he'd shop around, but he called us back soon enough because our price and call-out times were the best. Naturally, our technician had him once again doing his deliveries well within the time we had cited.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Longfield - Fuel Rescue Longfield
It was just before 5 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were relaxing commenting on the football rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Longfield rental car. She was quite affected apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this can happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected spot and, since it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could get to her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and much less anxious. Another misfuel correction well done in my mind!
