It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were resting discussing the recent football rankings, at the ready for the 6th call that day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Pontlliw and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to reach the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in.

Our Areas of Experience :

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

Engine with incorrect fuel - If you add incorrect fuel like petrol in diesel vehicles, there can be a number of issues. Your engine coughs and stutters, and gives out a lot of smoke. Also, your vehicle stalls and won't start again. Diesel in a petrol car does exactly the same. Whatsoever be the situation, we'll sort things out.

Water mistakenly added in the tank - If your tank is contaminated with water, it is essential that water has to be flushed out. Otherwise, your engine may start to rev up, splutter or jolt once you push the accelerator. This does not include your engine starting to build rust. An incident such as this doesn't happen to boats only; this can happen to your vehicle too. It should be drained out of the fuel system. Luckily we are experts on this kind of work.

AdBlue directly added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People typically don?t have a concrete idea of what AdBlue is for. It?s not a fuel additive. It?s a liquid that helps reduce the damaging effect on our environment by lessening the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not immediately to the fuel tank. In the event you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing work.

Tank with red diesel - This type of fuel may be distributed in a limited number of garage outlets. Still, contamination may find its way to your tank. You could fill your tank accidentally making use of jerry cans filled with red diesel. You are maybe not focused on what you are doing or distracted when this happened. Still, don?t fear; we are aware of what to do with it.

Driving with Old Fuel in the Tank - As time passes by and your car or truck is idle for some time, the quality of your fuel degrades. This happens if the car or truck is not driven and has been on standby for a long time and the fuel has been in the tank unused. The engine may start and run but there will be irregularities you'll notice. Emptying out the old fuel is a service we are more than capable of doing.

Vehicle Misfuel Pontlliw - Pontlliw Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a perfect day fishing during my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I set out to help a new couple on holiday in Pontlliw. They broken down after putting diesel into their Volvo, and the car was about half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing occurs continuously in Swansea and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent. Poor guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
