It was close to five pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there going over the footy, at the ready for the seventh call to arrive. Finally we had a call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Wofferwood Common and put the wrong fuel in a diesel mate's Ford Taurus lease car in error. The poor thing was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to worry, also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home contented and less anxious. Another job in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination
All over Herefordshire we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank?
Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
If you discover yourself to be in this situation don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Wofferwood Common - Wrong Fuel in Car Wofferwood Common
I'd had a fantastic day cycling on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I set off to assist a new couple on vacation in Wofferwood Common. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel into their elegant BMW M Roadster, and they were close to an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal chastising her husband for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this situation happens on a regular basis in Herefordshire and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, however he all the same had an ear bashing by his missus. I felt sorry for the chap. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove off I waved farewell and wondered what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I'd never ever live it down!
