We have heard about a wife who couldn’t start her new car.
After the mechanic did some routine checking, he casually mentioned about no fuel flow and the husband asked the wife, ‘Did you fill the tank?’ and the defensive wife said, ‘What do you mean? You gave me the car, I drive lah?’
Years ago, our workshop actually had a case of an insurance manager’s wife who put water into the engine! I have also come across a man in his fifties who filled a customer’s petrol car with diesel! That poor guy was scolded by his father, “If you don’t know, ask!” Just imagine it was a family business and he got shelling from his father for something so simple, yet anyone who is absent-minded could have made the same mistake.
I was reminded by the following joke forwarded to me:
Yesterday I was having some work done at the workshop. A woman came in and asked for a 'seven-hundred- ten'.
We all looked at each other, and the mechanic asked, "What is a seven-hundred- ten?"
She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine. I lost it and need a new one. It had always been there."
The mechanic gave the woman a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like. She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710 !!
He then took her over to another car which had the hood up and asked, "Is there a 710 on this car?"
She pointed and said, "Of course, it's right there."
While we are on the subject of petrol and oil, this old joke is still hilarious:
A little girl asks her mum, 'Mum, can I take the dog for a walk around the block?'

A little girl asks her mum, 'Mum, can I take the dog for a walk around the block?'
Her mum replies 'No, because she is in heat.'
'What does that mean?' asked the child.
'Go and ask your father. I think he's in the garage.'
The little girl goes out to the garage and says, 'Dad, can I take Lulu for a walk around the block? I asked Mum, but she said the dog was on the heat, and to come ask you.'
He took a rag, soaked it in petrol, and scrubbed the dog's backside with it to disguise the scent, and said 'Ok, you can go now, but keep Lulu on the leash and only go one time around the block.'
The little girl left and returned a few minutes later with no dog on the leash..
Surprised, Dad asked, 'Where's Lulu?'
The little girl said, 'She ran out of petrol about halfway round the block, so another dog is pushing her home.'
