It was after 5 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were relaxing there talking over the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Christchurch and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, also that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying in.

Our Areas of Expertise :

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

Wrong fuel put in the tank - Petrol fuel in a diesel engine causes a lot of trouble to your engine. It may begin to cough and stall. The exhaust of your car will begin to emit a lot of smoke and starting the engine is truly a challenge, particularly if the engine has already cooled down. Reversing the incorrect fuel, diesel in a petrol tank, the signals you will observe are similar. Either way, we can repair it for you.

Tank filled up with water - Water can contaminate your engine and it should be taken out of the fuel system to prevent damages and rust in your engine. When you accelerate hard your engine, it may start to rev up and jolt. Contamination like this is not only common in boats. This can happen to the car too because of the jerry cans that were previously utilized as a water container then later utilized as fuel container where water was not completely emptied.

AdBlue in the Diesel Tank - Intentionally done or made by mistake, we can help you fix your engine contaminated with AdBlue. This typically happens because vehicle owners lack understanding about AdBlue. AdBlue isn't a fuel additive, it's a liquid that reduces harmful emissions from the exhaust, and it is supposed to go in a special tank reserved for the purpose. More car owners are falling foul of AdBlue contamination daily, and it's our job to fix it for you.

Red diesel contamination - This incident rarely happens to vehicle owners but often it finds its way to a car?s tank. There are circumstances were filling up this fuel occur because of exhaustion or distraction. According to AA, there are 1500 garages in UK that sell this diesel. There is indeed a possibility of it getting in to your tank. If that takes place, we know how to handle it.

Old fuel unused for a long period - Another service we readily give is drainage of old fuel. People might believe that fuel can't go bad, that when stored it can last for many years on end, but that simply isn't true. Fuel degrades with time. The more it has degraded the more damage it can possibly cause on your engine. Don't be tricked if your car runs fine on degraded fuel. It is a disaster waiting to happen. Our team can stop that disaster.

Fuel Rescue Christchurch - Christchurch Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a great day fishing during my off day and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set off to help a young couple who were on holiday in Christchurch. They'd conked out after inserting petrol in their Kia, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled while I heard to the wife telling off her partner for turning out to be so daft. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place constantly in Dorset and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he yet still had an earful by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!
