It was around six pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the rugby, prepared for the seventh call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Stoke and put petrol in a diesel Smart rental by mistake. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately often happen.

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in the event that you may have put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution made out of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).It is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to devastating and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will likely trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.
