It was after 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a rainless day, it had not given up on pouring down rain! James and I were seated talking about the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the sixth call that day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Bathgate and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MINI lease car. The poor thing was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in West Lothian well done in my mind!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.
AdBlue Contamination
What to do if you have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made of a blend of deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue is definitely devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.
In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And of course never start the motor - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances rather simply.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains

Wrong Fuel Bathgate - Bathgate Fuel Drain
I appreciated a terrific day hiking on my holiday and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set off to help a young couple on holiday in Bathgate. They'd conked out after adding diesel into their BMW, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smiled as I heard to the woman telling off her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem takes place quite frequently in West Lothian and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he still got an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyhow, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted good bye and thought about what my wife would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
