It was close to 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting talking over the recent golf rankings, prepared for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Cippenham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel modern Volvo S80 rental car by mistake. The poor lady was very irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, since it was only a few miles from us, we were able to get to her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. A job in Berkshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Berkshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank?
Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters. If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And obviously don't switch on the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. If you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and noone was stirring. It had been rather dead so far, and Brian and I were sitting around perusing a few old newspapers. It was an uncommon tranquil hour in Berkshire. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant the phone rang I leaped! The motorist on the other end stated: "I've ended my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my diesel mom's Cadillac XLR". We got him to inform us where he was and we headed out, arriving in Cippenham an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said many thanks for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back home we spotted two ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. So we stopped to change it, to their delight.
