It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Dan and I were resting there talking over the recent footy, ready for the next call for the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Wilstead and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche hire car in error. She was very troubled it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was just a few miles off from us, we could find her right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could return to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Bedfordshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Bedfordshire we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course don't start the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container in the back of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Bedfordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Wilstead (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill your automobile. They will handle the usual troubles that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Wilstead - Wilstead Wrong Fuel Drain

A person contacted us from his residence on a street in Wilstead. He said, "My car (a Land Rover) is not running and is generating dreadful sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up again with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
