It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were seated talking about the recent tennis results, ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling garage in Comrie and filled petrol in her diesel Skoda hire car in error. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was only a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Perth and Kinross done well in my mind!

Fuel Rescue Comrie - Comrie Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Wednesday and we were en route to assist an elder woman who put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Comrie. I'd been told she had left the petrol station and pulled up in a country road on the way to see her godchildren. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel because I had only got it a few days ago because my previous car, which I had had for about twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a pleasant Perth and Kinross woman!

A customer had conked out just near a street in Comrie. His Porsche engine had stopped functioning and he'd no idea what was awry until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my car."

Below are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Perth and Kinross we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the car you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the back of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Perth and Kinross for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Comrie (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Perth and Kinross Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car. They are also able to deal with any of the usual problems which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Comrie

Tales from our own Comrie team:

We not long ago received a phone call from a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his Smart in Comrie. He had broken down on the road. "I couldn't believe how fast you were in getting a technician out to aid me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you so much". Of course we showed up punctually and flushed the engine after draining all the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our engineer said the driver was scowling, but was very happy after the fuel drain.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Comrie - Comrie Fuel Removal

A driver who had sadly put the wrong fuel in his diesel Land Rover called us for help at the BP filling station in Comrie. He decided to top up before continuing on to the local holiday park . "I put petrol instead of diesel and it wasn't a great way to begin to our getaway." It was really no hassle in the least for our technical engineer to go and perform the fuel drain. We hope they had a good vacation.
