It was before ten pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were seated there talking over the recent golf, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Broadplat and put the wrong fuel in a diesel silver Cadillac Sixty Special rental car in error. She was rather agitated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to move the car into a secure spot and, since it was just a short distance off from our van, we could get to her without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. A job in Oxfordshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Oxfordshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not knowing how to to make use of (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the car.
Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car?
Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters. If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly do not crank the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Phone us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Broadplat
I am certainly not too inclined to running weekends, and last week was the same. I had only just come away from the wife and kids after a lovely dinner cooked by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow after he had put the incorrect fuel in his navy blue Vauxhall Signum. He was only in Broadplat therefore I arrived on scene soon. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on stuff and didn't perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about any kind of problems by simply driving it?" I explained that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and also that I would get the wrong fuel drained as quickly as possible. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the correct fuel, and then another happy client was able to continue on their ride without hassle. The man did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes working on Sundays in Oxfordshire that little less painful to me!
