Wrong Fuel in Car Snow Lea - Petrol in Diesel Car Snow Lea
I'm not necessarily very inclined to carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had just departed the wife and kids after a tasty Sunday roast made for me by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a gentleman who filled the incorrect petrol in his Snow Lea. He was located nearby and so I arrived there rapidly. As I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and didn't ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I inflicted some problems by simply driving it?" I said generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained right away. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some suitable fuel, and one more pleased client was able to carry on with their trip without any hassle. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that tends to make carrying out work on weekends just that small bit easier in my opinion!

It truly was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and almost noone was about. It had been rather dead until now, and Ryan and I were loafing about looking at some old papers. That was an unusual calm hour. It was indeed that peaceful that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The motorist on the phone told me: "I only just ended my overnight shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Snow Lea by mistake". We instructed him to let us know just where he was and we set off, reaching him not as much as an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back to the office we noticed two girls on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. So we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.
