It was around seven pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and I were sitting there going over the recent rugby results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Lewes and put petrol in a diesel Volvo rental car. She was rather distressed apparently, stating "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, as it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to reach the customer quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less apprehensive. A fuel drain in East Sussex well done in my books!

Services We Provide:
Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any related issues.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
What you can do in the event that you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made out of a mix of high-purity deionized water and urea (32.5%).It is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be injected into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations pretty expediently.
Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.
