It was around 8 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting talking about the recent football results, waiting for the next call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Staunton on Wye and filled petrol in a diesel Honda rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

This is what we do best.

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 start to produce a lot of smoke and starting the engine is definitely a difficult task, especially if the engine has cooled down. Reversing the wrong fuel, diesel in a petrol tank, the signs you will notice are the same. Either way, we will repair it for you.

Water unintentionally added in the tank - If your tank is contaminated with water, it is crucial that water needs to be flushed out. Otherwise, your engine may start to rev up, splutter or jolt when 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 should be drained out of the fuel system. Luckily we are experts on this kind of job.

Tank with AdBlue - This contaminant can be added by accident or intentionally. Car owners don't have enough knowledge about AdBlue. That's exactly why they are in this problem now. Contrary to what many have said that it is an additive, the reality is AdBlue is a liquid that helps reducethe emission of harmful smoke in your exhaust and this must have a separate tank. Many people have been victims of this false belief and we have already fixed them easily.

Red diesel contamination - Another wrong fuel that leads to the wrong place at the wrong time is red diesel. It enters your vehicle by your own mistake or of a gas stop worker isn't too experienced in the various types of diesel. If that happens, your car will experience the same symptoms like it would with diesel petrol mix up. It will run low and coughs like a middle-aged lifelong smoker. But do not fret. Our team knows how to deal with red diesel contamination.

Attempting to drive using old or stale fuel - Fuel degrades with time, something that is common when the vehicle has been sitting, not driven, for some time, or the fuel has been stored for a while. The engine may start and run but there will be irregularities you'll notice. Old fuel needs to be drained out, and it's a service we provide.

Petrol in Diesel Staunton on Wye - Staunton on Wye Vehicle Misfuel

I had appreciated a terrific day golfing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple vacationing in Staunton on Wye. They'd pulled over after putting diesel into their Audi, and were roughly an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this occurs on a regular basis in Herefordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I waved hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the exact same error... I would personally never live it down!
