It was close to 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were resting talking over the rugby results, at the ready for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in West Blackdene and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel mint green BMW 1 Series rental. She was fairly irritated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the lady without delay.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may well bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel.
