It was around six pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were seated going over the recent football, at the ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Helham Green and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda rental by mistake. She was fairly agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from the office, we were able to reach the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and less stressed. Yet another job in Hertfordshire done well in my opinion!

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
