It was just after six pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there going over the recent tennis results, at the ready for the seventh job to arrive. In due time we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Quinton and filled petrol in her diesel MINI rental by mistake. She was pretty distressed it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected area and, as it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and less apprehensive. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my mind!

Fuel Removal Quinton - Quinton Vehicle Misfuel

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to help an elder lady who had put petrol in her diesel Mercedes in Quinton. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I plugged her location into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel as I'd only just got it a few days ago right after my previous car, which I'd used for about 25 years, eventually broke down". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Northamptonshire lady!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Northamptonshire we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And absolutely don't start the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Petrol in Diesel Quinton - Quinton Fuel Removal

A young lady from Quinton with her children in her diesel Toyota had put £40 of petrol at the station. She phoned us weeping and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that the vehicle should be alright and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we got there she was visible distressed but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children on board."
