It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were seated there talking over the sports results, ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in New Town and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart hire car by mistake. She was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Bedfordshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Bedfordshire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to work with it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And most certainly be careful not to crank the engine - not even to shift it to a parking area. Assuming you have started the car you would most likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations quite easily.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Bedfordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in New Town (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Bedfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They can also handle any of the typical problems that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue New Town - New Town Wrong Fuel
