It was close to 6 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing there going over the recent rugby, ready for the sixth telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Hermitage and filled petrol in a diesel Mitsubishi rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from our van, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was living at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination
How to handle it in case you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made from a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue can be harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.
In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances rather quickly.
Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Berkshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Fuel Drain Hermitage - Hermitage Fuel Rescue
A driver who had unluckily put the wrong fuel in his diesel BMW called us for a fuel drain at the Shell petrol filling station in Hermitage. He had decided to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel which unfortunately wasn't a good way to begin to our holiday." It was definitely no challenge by any means for our technical engineer to go along and do the fuel drain. We hope the family had a good holiday.
