Wrong Fuel in Car East Keswick - Petrol in Diesel Car East Keswick
What a quality night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Saturday and we were en route to help an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel East Keswick. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater lane en route to visit her family. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd only purchased it a week ago right after my former one, which I had for in excess of 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant woman!
