It was close to five pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and me were resting talking over the sports rankings, ready for the next job of the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Larkhall and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot rental in error. She was fairly irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure position and, since it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and much less apprehensive. A job in South Lanarkshire done well in my books!

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made of a mix of high-purity urea and ionized water.It is definitely damaging to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
