I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon fishing on my afternoon off and felt satisfied the following working day as I set off to assist a young family vacationing in Little Drayton.

I showed up at their position and laughed as I listened to the girl telling her man off for turning out to be so daft.

I attempted to explain that this takes place frequently in Shropshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some correct fuel.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
