If you’re looking to make some extra cash in My Winter Car, the septic pumping job is a solid option. Not only does it help your wallet, but it also lets you drive an otherwise unusable vehicle.
The septic pumping task becomes available after receiving a phone call asking for assistance. This job is unique because you can’t get fired from it, which means no performance stress. In this guide, we’ll go through all the essential steps to ace the task of cleaning someone else’s septic system.
How to Start the Septic Pumping Job in My Winter Car
To kick things off, you’ll need to wait for a phone call notifying you that a sewage well is full. Make sure to answer the call and let the NPC hang up first; if you disconnect before the conversation wraps, the job won’t start. Once the dialogue finishes and you accept the job, you’ll see a location marker appear on your map.
Your main job is to drive the Gifu, a specialized tanker, to that location so you can handle the sewage.
How to Complete the Septic Pumping Job in My Winter Car
Once you arrive at the marked site with the Gifu, look for a grey septic tank with a square lid. Park the Gifu close by, remove the lid gently, and take out the hose from the back of the tanker. Insert the hose into the septic tank.
Next, hop into the Gifu’s cabin and activate the hydraulics. You’ll also notice a hand throttle. If your character starts to cough from the smell, congratulations—you’re on the right track! Once the pumping is complete, the homeowner will let you know and congratulate you for a job well done.
After accepting your payment, detach the hose from the tank and stow it away in the back of the Gifu. If you accidentally drop it inside the tank, don’t panic; simply save your game and reload to reset it. If the Gifu’s tank fills up, make sure to unload the waste at the nearby Waste Treatment Facility.
What do you need to start the septic pumping job?
You’ll need the Gifu and a full tank of gas. Make sure to be ready for unpleasant odors—bring along a cough drop if you feel it’s necessary!
Is the septic pumping job worth the effort?
Absolutely! It’s a great way to add cash to your balance, and you get to operate a unique vehicle that’s fun to drive.
How do you know when the job is complete?
You’ll receive a notification from the homeowner once the pumping is finished, indicating that you can wrap up the job and collect your payment.
What happens if the Gifu gets too full?
If your Gifu’s tank fills up, you can take it to the Waste Treatment Facility to unload. Just be careful not to let the hose fall back into the septic tank during the process!
