It was after 6 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting there talking about the recent footy, ready for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Before long we had the call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station in Oban and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart lease car. The poor thing was fairly agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably can happen.

Wrong Fuel Oban - Oban Wrong Fuel Assist
I enjoyed a great evening hiking during my off day and felt satisfied the following morning as I set out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Oban. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Mercedes, and were about an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this happens regularly in Argyll and Bute and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, however he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I drained out all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved bon voyage and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

Our Areas of Competence :
These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In Diesel
How to proceed if you have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid made from a mix of high-purity urea and deionized water.Adblue tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.
Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course never turn over the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather swiftly.
Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel.
