Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Kirk Ireton and filled petrol in a diesel grass green VW GTI rental car in error. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things sadly happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may well produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases pretty expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
