It was just after ten pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Dan and me were sitting talking over the tennis results, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Shortstown and put petrol in a diesel Mercedes lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, and that these things happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. One more fuel drain in Bedfordshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel
In Bedfordshire we have encountered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations pretty quickly.
Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Bedfordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Shortstown (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They will handle the usual issues which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

We assured her that everything should be fine and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we got there she was still distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked.
