It was close to 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting talking over the weekend's footy, prepared for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Thurso and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi lease car. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, saying "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the car to a safe space and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we could reach the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could return to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Highland done well in my mind!

Below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Highland we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And of course don't crank the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel may well result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Highland to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Thurso (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Highland Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They are also able to deal with the most common problems which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Thurso - Thurso Fuel Removal

A motorist had broken down just near a road in Thurso. His Ford engine had ceased working and he'd no idea what was wrong till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had gotten very little sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
