It was close to 8 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were sitting there going over the recent golf rankings, prepared for the 6th job for the day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in St Helens and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably often happen.

Our Areas of Competence :

This is what we do best.

Tank filled with wrong fuel - Diesel engine filled with petrol fuel is undesirable and should be given attention straight away. Your car will begin to show some signs such as an irregular amount of smoke in the exhaust. It will cough and splutter too. Not just that, starting the engine back is nearly impossible once you've turned it off.

Damaging the engine with water - Water contamination typically requires the fuel system to be drained. It causes the engine to rev up, jolt or splutter when you accelerate, and can ultimately rust your fuel system. This generally happens to boats ultimately because of the jerry cans used in filling the tanks which were not completely checked for water left. We'll drain it for you, and we might even be able to help with replacement filters.

Adding AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination occurs when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, generally by mistake. This generally comes about because vehicle owners lack knowledge about AdBlue. AdBlue isn't a fuel additive, it's a liquid that minimizes harmful emissions from the exhaust, and it is supposed to go in a special tank reserved for the purpose. Many people have been victims of this false belief and we have fixed them quickly.

Red diesel contamination - This incident seldom happens to car owners but often it finds its way to a car?s tank. There are instances were filling up this fuel take place due to exhaustion or distraction. According to AA, there are 1500 garages in UK that sell this diesel. There is indeed a chance of it getting in to your tank. If that takes place, we know how to deal with it.

Old fuel unused for quite a while - Another service we readily offer is drainage of old fuel. People might think that fuel can't go bad, that once stored it can last for many years on end, but that simply isn't true. Fuel degrades with time. The more it has degraded the more damage it can probably cause on your engine. Don't be tricked if your vehicle runs fine on degraded fuel. It's a disaster waiting to happen.
