It was after eight pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were relaxing going over the weekend's sports, ready for the seventh job of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Oareford and filled petrol in her diesel friend's Audi Cabriolet rental by mistake. She was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably happen. She was able to move the car to a safe position and, because it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home calm and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may well produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases very easily.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
