It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were seated talking over the recent rugby rankings, ready for the next call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Brampton and put petrol in her diesel Peugeot lease car in error. She was rather distressed apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, as it was only a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could return to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Cumbria well done in my mind!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brampton - Brampton Petrol in Diesel
I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing on my holiday and was feeling pleased the following day as I set out to assist a new couple who were on vacation in Brampton. They stopped after inserting diesel in their Suzuki, and they were around half an hour away. I showed up at their location and smirked as I listened to the girl chastising her partner for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this situation comes to pass quite frequently in Cumbria and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same got an ear bashing by his better half. Poor guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and wondered what my missus would say to me if I did the very same thing... I would never ever live it down!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue Contamination
In Cumbria we have identified an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.
Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously do not turn over the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank can contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations quite quickly.
Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Recent Fuel Drains in Brampton
A few stories:
We did a wrong fuel removal exercise near a lovely house in Brampton recently. "I put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and managed to nearly arrive at home when my car cut out." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and carried out a fuel drain and purge on the Land Rover .
Wrong Fuel Doctor Brampton - Brampton Wrong Fuel Drain
A lady employed in Brampton called us shortly after she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had put petrol in her diesel Peugeot and, like many people before her, imagined that she would be able to just fill her vehicle with diesel and it would run no problem. The vehicle was spluttering and then it died when she arrived at the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed inside an hour whilst she was at the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really glad you fixed my car."
