It was about ten pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby results, waiting around for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Clapton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected area and, as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Berkshire we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases fairly simply.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Berkshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Clapton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded 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 fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the typical troubles that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
