He was only nearby therefore it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I drove up right behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on other things and failed to perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any kind of problems by starting it?" I revealed generally there should not be any kind of damage and that also I would get the wrong fuel drained at once. Needless to say I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so one more contented customer could carry on with their ride with no fuss. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make working on weekends that little bit better for me!
