Clarks - well done

[autobump]

Just want to say a big thanks to Clarks.

On Thursday on my way from Hull to Falmouth, I filled up on the M42 with diesel. Got recovered to Clarks who got me sorted and back on the road to continue my journey, in double quick time and didnt make a drama out of a crisis.

Well done and thanks.

Just out of interest what did they have to do, was it just a case of emptying out the tank and flushing through? or is it more complex?

It's a lot more complex than that, they have to dream up a bill as well

If I had not started the bike it would have been a simple job of draining the tank, but as I had started it it required flushing out the whole system including the injectors, it took about an hour and half, as I'm not technically minded I know no more than that.

I was just pleased that they got me on my way again and sorted me out quickly.

glad you got sorted.

Worry not. I am the owner of a 2006 GSA that the previous owner filled with 33 litres of the finest French diesel on his way to a World Cup game in 2007. Tank drained, flushed out with petrol and new plugs fitted. Made (white) smoke for a while on start up.

It now has over 60,000 miles on the clock and is showing no signs of turning into a taxi.

It's a fair cop

I was actually on my way to the route Napoleon..... but ended up at the rugby world cup in Lens instead.

The smoke would have shamed a battleship. But, 90 litres of prime four stroke motion lotion later and it was all gone
