It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were seated there commenting on the tennis, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Armadale and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected spot and, as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could get to the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and much less anxious. One more misfuel correction in West Lothian well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do if you have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
