It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and me were sitting talking over the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Ratcliff and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda hire car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this often happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing that it was just a few miles from our van, we could get to the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Kingston upon Thames well done in my books!

Wrong Fuel Drain Ratcliff - Ratcliff Petrol in Diesel
What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel SEAT in Ratcliff. I had been advised she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up in a rural lane on route to see her godchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I got to the destination and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only bought it a few days ago when my previous one, which I'd had for over 30 years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Kingston upon Thames lady!

Testimonies from our Ratcliff mechanics:
I'm not necessarily excessively hot for running on weekends, and last week was the same. I had just come away from home following a fantastic roast cooked by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a guy who put the wrong petrol in his Mitsubishi. He was only in Ratcliff and so I arrived on scene almost immediately. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and did not realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted some damage by running it?" I explained generally there shouldn't be any damage and also that I'd drain the contaminated fuel quickly. As expected I removed the fuel from the car and filled it with some suitable fuel, and thus one more pleased customer could continue his journey without the bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make working on Sundays in Kingston upon Thames that little less painful for me!
Fuel Removal Ratcliff - Ratcliff Petrol in Diesel
A lady from Ratcliff with a full car of little ones in her diesel Renault had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the Co Op service station. She called us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that all should be alright and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the little ones in the back."
