It was just after five pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's tennis rankings, ready for the 8th job of the day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Eastheath and put petrol in a diesel Chevrolet hire car by mistake. She was somewhat agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from us, we could get to her without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to return to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Berkshire we are finding progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously do not crank the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is going to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Berkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Eastheath (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to fix any of the normal problems that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Eastheath - Eastheath Fuel Removal

A customer had broken down off a road in Eastheath. His Mitsubishi motor had ceased operating and he had no clue what was wrong till he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten no rest the day before and that must have been the reason why.
