It was about eight pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were resting going over the rugby results, prepared for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Finally we got a call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Chilmark and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar lease car in error. She was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected position and, because it was just a short distance from us, we could arrive at her quickly.

Services We Offer:

Below are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made out of a mix of high-purity deionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it immediately. And most definitely don't start up the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Vehicle Misfuel Chilmark - Chilmark Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a terrific evening hiking during my day off and felt pleased with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a new family away in Chilmark. They'd stopped after putting diesel into their Volkswagen, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and laughed as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing goes on everyday in Wiltshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyhow, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove away I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never ever live it down!
