Wrong Fuel in Car Bilting - Petrol in Diesel Car Bilting
Just had a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and I was off to help an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel Bilting. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a rural road en route to visit her godchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was with her inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I have been getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I'd only just acquired it a week ago when my old car, which I had for more than twenty years, eventually died on me". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a pleasant lady!

Water and AdBlue Contamination
There are other reasons for engine troubles besides wrong fuel in a car. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause very similar symptoms of lack of power, irregular running, excessive smoke and stalling. Besides, it can make the fuel filters unusable and require replacement.
You can also observe similar symptoms if AdBlue is added int the diesel tank. AdBlue is a cleaner that helps the engine of your vehicle to be more eco-friendly. However, if this is added straight to your fuel tank, it will most likely to cause more trouble than good. That's precisely why it should have a separate tank and the dosing should be automated. If added manually, this should be carried out by someone who knows the proper place to put it.
We extend our service to you whatever it maybe: whether it's an AdBlue problem or fuel contaminated with water. We can get you back to your journey after we carry out the same procedure as fixing an engine with wrong fuel. Works include draining and flushing, then, replacing with fresh fuel.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bilting - Fuel Rescue Bilting
Now I'm certainly not excessively hot for carrying out work on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just left home after having a superb lunch made for me by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a guy after he had put the incorrect fuel in his Bilting. He was somewhere nearby so I arrived on scene before long. As I drove up right behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise God! I had my thoughts on other things and did not perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any kind of damage by running it?" I stated that there should not be harm and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained at once. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled it with some suitable fuel, and yet another satisfied customer could carry on with their traveling with no difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays a little bit easier for me!
