It was around 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were sitting talking about the weekend's footy, ready for the next job of the day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Goddards Green and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the car into a protected space and, because it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to get to her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my mind!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Berkshire we have identified a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists being unsure of how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances very easily.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Berkshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Goddards Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to fix any of the standard troubles which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
