It was before five pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a rainless evening, it had not given up on raining! Mark and me were seated there commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Finally we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Harrow on the Hill and put petrol in her diesel Smart rental car. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes from us, we could get to her swiftly.

Services We Offer:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made from a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, bringing about devastating and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will often result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite expediently.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
