It was just after 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! James and I were seated going over the recent football rankings, waiting around for the seventh job for the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Fair Cross and put petrol in a diesel Citroen hire car by mistake. She was pretty affected it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, because it was just a few miles off from where we were, we could reach the lady without delay.

Our Services:

Listed here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in case you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to start the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel.

Petrol in Diesel Fair Cross - Fair Cross Wrong Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling contented the following day as I headed out to help a new family who were holidaying in Fair Cross. They stopped after adding the wrong fuel into their Skoda, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I heard to the lady telling her man off for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this happens quite frequently in Barking and Dagenham and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed so long and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
