I'd had a perfect evening fishing during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I set off to assist a new couple who were on vacation. They conked out after inserting diesel into their Braithwaite, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this happens all the time and that it's really nothing to worry about, even so he all the same got an earful by his missus. Poor boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved good-bye and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd never live it down!

If you haven't and your car is in a risky position, get out from the nearside doors and find a secure place to stand. Having a warning triangle placed fifty meters from your vehicle, notify other road users that your vehicle had a breakdown. If you have stopped on the motorway, it is always advisable to leave the car, again from the nearside doors only. If you brought a pet with you, then it is safer that they are left inside the car.

Other Fuel Services
Aside from remedial services when you have the wrong fuel in a vehicle, we are highly adept at other solutions like dumping contaminated fuel. Many individuals do not consider disposal to be a relevant service however it is one of the more demanding aspects of the job. It is a difficult procedure because we have to religiously observe the stringent regulations set by the Environment Agency and there has to be legal certification before any fuel is gotten rid of. This service is readily available to both private and commercial clients. Thus, your wish is our command and we will happily get rid of any contaminated fuel whether it's in a container, trailer load, or a fixed big capacity tank.

We can also deal with other fuel contamination problems like water in a vehicle's fuel system. Unintentionally mixing AdBlue in the fuel tank is not even a problem for us. AdBlue is popular in the market because it claims to be a good diesel emission cleaner. As long as you add enough amount of AdBlue and carry out the appropriate process, it can keep your diesel engine run clean. However nowadays, a lot of people have been using AdBlue wrongly and thus, causing harm to their fuel tanks.
Water and AdBlue are no match for our mechanics and they will have the tools and know-how to get you on your way as quickly as possible.
