It was close to 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated there talking about the weekend's golf, waiting for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Highfields and put the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very distressed it seemed, crying "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, as it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the lady almost instantly.

Our Areas of Specialties:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in the event that you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made of a mix of urea and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be squirted into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely never start the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations rather swiftly.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
