It was around eight pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and I were sitting discussing the footy rankings, ready for the seventh job to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Alston and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia rental car. She was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off satisfied and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Cumbria done well in my books!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Cumbria we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not understanding the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.
Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Call us if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is going to produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances quite simply.
Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Cumbria for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.
