Wrong Fuel Doctor Stockbridge - Fuel Rescue Stockbridge
Now I am not ever too interested in doing work on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I had just left the family after a tasty roast cooked for us by the missus, and I was on my way to sort out a fellow after he had put the wrong petrol in his Stockbridge. He was only nearby so it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived at the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my thoughts on other things and did not grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused any damage because of running it?" I explained that there shouldn't be damage and that also I'd personally drain the fuel as soon as possible for him. Obviously I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with the correct fuel, and so another pleased client had the ability to continue on their ride without the fuss. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what tends to make operating on weekends a little easier to me!
