It was close to 9 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated talking over the sports results, ready for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Little Thetford and put petrol in her diesel Chevrolet rental car by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at.

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in the event that you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a mix of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue tends to be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to start the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
