It was around 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Whitley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MG rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat agitated it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!"

Our Areas of Expertise :

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do if you may have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

Vehicle Misfuel Whitley - Whitley Wrong Fuel Drain

I appreciated a terrific evening cycling during my afternoon off and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were on vacation in Whitley. They'd pulled over after adding petrol in their Mercedes, and were about half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled while I listened to the girl telling off her spouse for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass everyday in Greater Manchester and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, nevertheless he all the same had an earful. Poor lad. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved bon voyage and thought about what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I would never ever live it down!
