It was just before 6 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were resting there commenting on the tennis results, at the ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Nelson and put petrol in her diesel Renault hire car in error. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at the customer right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and much less worried. Yet another job in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any associated issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in the event that you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never start up the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel may lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Take note that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
