It was around seven pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it had not given up on raining! Paul and me were sitting talking about the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the seventh call of the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Westcroft and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel luxury Chevrolet Silverado lease car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat agitated apparently, stating "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things happen. She had managed to get the car into a secure area and, as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to get to her swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and not so anxious. Yet another job in Buckinghamshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations fairly easily.
Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

A customer had come to a halt on a road, Westcroft just after having wrong fueled. She was in tears and really troubled as she had put £55 of petrol in her diesel car. When she called us we made an effort to calm her as well as we could, telling her that it would be ok. By the time we reached her she was no longer upset and was quite interested in watching our technician carry out the fuel drain on her beloved VW GTI. Later she said: "My car is akin to my child, I just paid for it and so it genuinely concerned me that I had put so much wrong fuel in it. I'm very gratified that it was so easily fixable."

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Westcroft
It can't be fun being stuck in a vehicle filled with the improper fuel halfway down the road. One of our most recent customers who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (metallic silver Peugeot 206) in Westcroft ran into literally this kind of problem: "Your engineer removed my vehicle from the road. He removed the wrong fuel from it and had it going again within around 30 minutes. Highly recommended."

It truly was the night shift. It was about 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite uneventful so far, and John and I were sitting about browsing a couple of old papers. It was an unusual restful moment in Buckinghamshire. It was so quiet that the instant the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The person told me: "I've completed my night shift and stupidly filled petrol in a daughter's BMW Z8". We instructed him to tell us where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in Westcroft 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the car and he said many thanks for showing up so quickly. As we were going back to the office we noticed two young women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a flat. So we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.
