It was around 10 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were relaxing there talking about the rugby rankings, ready for the 6th job for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Moffat and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus rental car by mistake. The poor thing was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was only a short distance from our van, we could reach the lady right away.

Our Services:

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

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - A diesel engine filled with petrol is more troublesome compared to a petrol tank filled with diesel. Engine may start to splutter and may stall. A good deal of fumes could very well be seen also. But whatever it is, we're ready to get you going again.

Tank with water - Water in the tank must be taken out of the fuel system by totally flashing it out or else you'll see problems such as jolting, spluttering or revving up. That?s including the rust in the engine that will be accumulated if taken for granted. Possible causes include the containers like jerry cans that were utilized in filling the engine tank. It?s possible that the cans were not totally emptied when you utilized it in filling car?s tank.

Adding AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination takes place when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, typically by mistake. This typically happens because car owners lack knowledge about AdBlue. AdBlue isn't a fuel additive, it's a liquid that reduces harmful emissions from the exhaust, and it is supposed to go in a special tank reserved for the purpose. A lot of people have been victims of this false belief and we have fixed them quickly.

Contaminating your tank with red diesel - Red diesel at times finds its way into fuel tanks by accident. It can easily happen if you are distracted or exhausted, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. If it happens to you, we'll handle it fast and proficiently.

Old Fuel in the Tank - As time passes by and your car is idle for a while, the quality of your fuel degrades. This happens if the car is not driven and has been on standby for a long period of time and the fuel has been in the tank unused. Your engine might start and run, but it probably won't run as well. Draining out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Fuel Removal Moffat - Moffat Vehicle Misfuel

I had a perfect afternoon cycling on my day off and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I headed out to aid a young family vacationing in Moffat. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel in their Ford, and the car was approximately an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife telling her partner off for actually being so silly. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs on a regular basis in Dumfries and Galloway and that it's nothing to be concerned about, however he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky boy. At any rate, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would tell me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
