It was after ten pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were resting discussing the football results, ready for the next job of the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Catwick and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall hire car. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, because it was only a short distance off from us, we could find the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was staying in.

Tank filled with wrong fuel - Diesel engine filled with petrol fuel is damaging and should be given attention immediately. Your car will start to show some signs like an irregular amount of smoke in the exhaust. It will cough and splutter too. Not only that, starting the engine back is practically impossible once you've turned it off.

Water mistakenly added in the tank - If your tank is contaminated with water, it is essential that water has to be flushed out. Otherwise, your engine may start to rev up, splutter or jolt once you push the accelerator. This does not include your engine starting to build rust. An incident like this does not happen to boats only; this can happen to your vehicle too. It must be drained out of the fuel system. Luckily we're experts on this type of job.

Adding AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination happens when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, usually by mistake. It takes place when people don't properly comprehend what it's for. Contrary to what many have claimed that it is an additive, the reality is AdBlue is a liquid that helps minimizethe emission of harmful smoke in your exhaust and this should have a separate tank. Lots of people have been victims of this false belief and we have already resolved them easily.

Red diesel contamination - Another wrong fuel that leads to the wrong place at the wrong time is red diesel. It enters your car by your own mistake or of a gas stop worker isn't too proficient in the different kinds of diesel. If that takes place, your vehicle will go through similar symptoms like it would with diesel petrol mix up. It will run low and coughs like a middle-aged lifelong smoker. But don't be anxious. Our team knows how to cope with red diesel contamination.

Attempting to drive using old and degraded fuel - Fuel degrades after some time, something that is common when the car has been sitting, not driven, for quite a while, or the fuel has been stored for some time. Your engine might start and run, but it probably won't run as well. Old fuel needs to be drained out, and it's a service we provide.
