It was about 10 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the 6th call of the day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Belfast and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda lease car. She was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!"

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Saturday and we were on my way to help an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen in Belfast. She told us that she had left the filling station and broken down along a country road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I'd only got it a short while ago when my other one, which I had used for more than twenty five years, inevitably broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely County Antrim lady!

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
What to do in case you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a mixture of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.
In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And of course never start the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in fuel will often produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations fairly swiftly.
You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Vehicle Misfuel Belfast - Belfast Wrong Fuel
This was an unsociable time to be awake. It was around dawn and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Ray were loafing around reading through a number of old papers. That was an uncommon tranquil time in County Antrim. It was in fact that tranquil that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The voice on the phone told me: "I have just concluded my night shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in my Audi in error". We told him to inform us just where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Belfast under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the car and he said thanks for getting there so fast. While we were returning home we noticed two girls at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, to their delight.
