It was before six pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting there discussing the golf results, ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Oban and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was only a few miles away from the office, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could get back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. Yet another job in Argyll and Bute done well in my books!

I punched her location into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I got to the location and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was working she said, "I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel as I had only acquired it several days ago because my other one, which I had for in excess of thirty years, inevitably died on me".

This is what exactly we do best.
Engine with wrong fuel - If you put wrong fuel like petrol in diesel vehicles, there can be several complications. Your engine coughs and stutters, and gives out a lot of smoke. Also, your vehicle stalls and refuses to start again. Diesel in a petrol vehicle does the same. Whatsoever be the situation, we'll sort things out.
Water unintentionally added in the tank - If your tank is contaminated with water, it is crucial that water has to be flushed out. Otherwise, your engine may start to rev up, splutter or jolt when you push the accelerator. This does not include your engine starting to build rust. An incident such as this does not happen to boats only; this can happen to your vehicle too. It should be drained out of the fuel system. Luckily we're professionals on this type of job.
AdBlue in your tank - Similar to the wrong fuel in the wrong place, people often add AdBlue to their engine. The majority of them misunderstand the goal of AdBlue. It should go in a special compartment around the engine, and not the engine itself. It minimizes emissions. AdBlue contamination numbers are increasing steadily. In case you encounter that problem, let's handle it for you.
Red diesel contamination - Another wrong fuel that leads to the wrong place at the wrong time is red diesel. It enters your car by your own mistake or of a gas stop worker isn't too experienced in the different kinds of diesel. If that takes place, your vehicle will go through the same symptoms like it would with diesel petrol mix up. It will run low and coughs just like a middle-aged lifelong smoker. But don't fret. Our team knows how to cope with red diesel contamination.
Old fuel in your tank - As time passes, the fuel in a vehicle that has been sitting in the garage for a long time may degrade and not good for the engine anymore. The engine may begin when you turn it on but the car won?t run. This old fuel has to be flushed out and we can do that too.

Stories from our own Oban personnel:
A young adult who had only recently passed his test had misfueled his Mazda by putting unleaded in the diesel vehicle at the petrol station in Oban.

He was afraid because his father had only just got him the car. He located our company on the internet and so called it without delay, frightened about what he should do.

A motorist living in Oban contacted us after she tried to get her misfueled car to her office. She had put unleaded in her diesel Honda and, like plenty before her, believed that she could just fill up the tank with diesel and it would run fine. The vehicle was spluttering and then it died when she came to the entrance of her office. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired within an hour while she was at work. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely glad you sorted my car."
