It was about six pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were resting talking about the weekend's tennis, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Nailsworth and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance away from us, we could get to the woman right away. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home contented and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All over Gloucestershire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will often cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite easily.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Nailsworth (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home.
