It was around 7 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and I were resting there talking about the weekend's sports rankings, waiting for the 6th job that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Auchterarder and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. The poor lady was very distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and not so apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Perth and Kinross well done in my mind!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Auchterarder - Auchterarder Wrong Fuel Drain

They had conked out after putting diesel into their Nissan, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and laughed while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing takes place on a regular basis in Perth and Kinross and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove off I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Our Fields of Expertise:
Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
What you should do if you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made from a mix of ionized water (67.5%) and urea.It can be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.
Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations very quickly.
Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Fuel Removal Auchterarder - Auchterarder Vehicle Misfuel
This was most definitely what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It was fairly quiet up to now, and me and John were sitting about reading a couple of old newspapers. This was a rare peaceful hour in Perth and Kinross. Actually it was indeed that peaceful that when my mobile finally rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I've only just completed my night shift and stupidly filled petrol in the diesel Volvo in error". I told him to inform us where the car was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Auchterarder an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for getting there so promptly. As we were going back to the depot we saw two girls at the side of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. Obviously we got out to help them change it, to their delight.
