Paul and I were sitting there going over the recent football rankings, ready for the seventh call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Ridgway and put petrol in a diesel Lexus rental car by mistake. She was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably can happen.

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Shropshire we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to people being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is likely to result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases very simply.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Fuel Drain Ridgway - Ridgway Wrong Fuel Assist
This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was about 3:30 in the morning and noone was about. It had been pretty uneventful so far, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing a number of old magazines. That was an uncommon calm moment in Shropshire. Actually it was in fact so calm that when the telephone rang it made me jump! The customer told me: "I ended my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in my SEAT in error". We asked him to inform us where the car was and we left, reaching him in Ridgway half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the motor. He thanked us profusely for showing up so quickly. While we were coming back to the office we spotted two girls at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped to help them change it, much to their elation.
