Wrong Fuel Doctor Ambler Thorn - Fuel Rescue Ambler Thorn
It was after 5 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting there going over the footy, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station and put petrol in a diesel Ambler Thorn rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very affected it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to move the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few miles from our van, we could reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. Another fuel drain well done in my books!
