It was just after 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were sitting there going over the tennis, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Barton-le-Clay and put petrol in her diesel SEAT lease car in error. She was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe spot and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we were able to find the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and much less worried. Another job in Bedfordshire well done in my opinion!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Bedfordshire we have encountered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Bedfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Barton-le-Clay (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the normal problems which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
