Petrol in Diesel Rothesay - Rothesay Wrong Fuel Doctor

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Sunday and we were en route to assist an old sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG in Rothesay. I had been informed she had left the filling station and broken down along a rural road en route to visit her family. I punched the location in the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I reached the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was working she said, "I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel as I had only purchased it a couple of days back when my previous car, which I used for over 30 years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Argyll and Bute lady!

Therefore, in the event that you've topped up your petrol vehicle with diesel, or put petrol in your diesel automobile anywhere in Argyll and Bute, phone us now. Our experienced mechanics are available for you.

A guy had stopped just near a street in Rothesay. His Ford engine had ceased working and he had no clue what was wrong until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Argyll and Bute we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather expediently.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Argyll and Bute to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages.
