It was close to ten pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and I were sitting discussing the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the next job that day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Kelham and put petrol in her diesel Nissan lease car. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from the office, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in.

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you may have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s composed of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).It can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Kelham - Kelham Wrong Fuel Drain

I appreciated a terrific afternoon fishing during the weekend and felt pleased with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a new family who were on holiday in Kelham. They had stopped after filling petrol in their Mazda, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl berating her husband for being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation goes on everyday in Nottinghamshire and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
