It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Lesmahagow and filled petrol in a diesel Dacia hire car by mistake. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this often happen.

Fuel Removal Lesmahagow - Lesmahagow Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a great afternoon hiking during the weekend and felt cheerful the next day as I set out to assist a new couple who were vacationing in Lesmahagow. They'd broken down after filling petrol in their Dacia, and the car was close to half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked as I listened to the woman berating her man for being so daft. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this problem happens regularly in South Lanarkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove off I waved so long and wondered what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
