It was after ten pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting there talking about the golf results, ready for the 8th call that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Okeford Fitzpaine and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda lease car. The unfortunate lady was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I have destroyed the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from our van, we could reach the woman right away.

Our Areas of Expertise: Services Our Company Offers:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mix of urea and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases quite swiftly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
