It was close to six pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were sitting talking about the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 8th call to arrive. Before long we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in East Grimstead and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche lease car. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, as it was just a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and much less anxious. A job in Wiltshire done well in my books!

Vehicle Misfuel East Grimstead - East Grimstead Petrol in Diesel
I enjoyed a perfect evening cycling during my off day and was feeling pleased the next day as I set out to help a new family who were away in East Grimstead. They had pulled over after inserting petrol in their Citroen, and they were around half an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her partner for actually being so foolish. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this happens everyday in Wiltshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would never hear the end of it!

AdBlue in your Fuel tank - Like the wrong fuel in the wrong place, people tend to add AdBlue to their engine. The majority of them misunderstand the purpose of AdBlue.

If you experience that problem, let's handle it for you.
Red diesel added to your tank - Per AA, there are about 1500 garages that sell red diesel. However, there are not too many outlets of this red diesel, still, accident takes place. Red diesel may come into your tank unexpectedly. You may not observe that you've got your tank filled up with red diesel because you don?t have the full attention to what you are filling.
Old fuel in your tank - As time goes by, the fuel in the car that has been sitting in the garage for a long time may degrade and not great for the engine anymore. The engine may start when you turn it on but the car won?t run. This old fuel has to be flushed out and we can do that too.
