It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated going over the recent footy results, waiting for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Seven Springs and put petrol in a diesel spotless Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class lease car by mistake. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this often happen. She had managed to move the car to a safe space and, as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and not so worried. Another misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances pretty simply.
Be aware however that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and I was on the way to help an older sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel bright red Volvo C70 in Seven Springs. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down in a country road en route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I reached the car and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was working she said, "I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only just acquired it a week back because my old one, which I had for over twenty five years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Gloucestershire woman!
