It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there commenting on the rugby, ready for the next job of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Strangford and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MG hire car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe that I've ruined the car!

Fuel Tank with AdBlue - This contamination happens when you immediately put AdBlue to your tank or you may have accidentally did it. Misinformation could be among the reasons. People think it?s a fuel additive, it?s not. AdBlue is a liquid that?s added to minimize the harmful effect of your engine?s emission in the exhaust. It must be mounted in a separate tank for a specific purpose. A lot of drivers are victims of this contamination but don?t fret as we know how to cope with it.

Red Diesel in the Tank - Accidentally filling the tank is the most usual cause of this. It can easily occur if you are distracted or tired, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. If it happens to you, we'll handle it quickly and proficiently.

Attempting to drive using old fuel - Fuel degrades with time, something that is common when the vehicle has been sitting, not driven, for a while, or the fuel has been stored for some time.

They'd stopped after adding diesel in their Volkswagen, and they were about half an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the gal telling off her man for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this problem occurs constantly in Herefordshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same got his ear bent. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some right fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
