Wrong Fuel Doctor Allerton - Fuel Rescue Allerton
I had appreciated a perfect day cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful the next working day as I set out to assist a new couple vacationing. They had stopped after putting petrol into their Allerton, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smiled as I listened to the lady telling off her hubby for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this situation occurs regularly and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, however he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed so long and thought about what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
