It was just after five pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting talking over the golf, waiting around for the next telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Thornbury and put petrol in her diesel Smart hire car. She was pretty affected it seemed, crying "I can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure area and, as it was only a short distance away from the office, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at.

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue is actually harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.
