Wrong Fuel Doctor Aldington - Fuel Rescue Aldington
Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and I was on the way to help an older lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Aldington. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded in a rural lane on the way to see her family. I popped her location in the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she explained, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car using diesel as I'd only got it several days back when my other car, which I'd had for more than twenty years, inevitably broke down". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful woman!
