When we get to your location

Once the mechanic is at your location and has access to your car, his first work is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is caused by wrong fuel or not. If it is not, he won’t render any service linked to the incorrect fuel in the car, and in that case, you won’t be charged the quoted fee but an updated amount.

If it is actually the problem of wrong fuel in a car, our mechanic will solve it instantly since he carries the equipment for flushing out the wrong fuel and filling up the tank with the correct fuel.

Wrong Fuel in Car St Marys Bay - Petrol in Diesel Car St Marys Bay

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling delighted with myself the following morning as I set off to assist a young couple holidaying. They broken down after adding petrol into their St Marys Bay, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so silly. "How could you actually be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this goes on quite frequently and that it's actually absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would say to me if I made the same blunder... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

It was before 6 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were resting there discussing the recent golf, at the ready for the next call to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage and filled petrol in her diesel St Marys Bay rental by mistake. The poor lady was quite irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance from where we were, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away satisfied and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain well done in my mind!
