It was just before five pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the recent football results, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Winkfield Place and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected it seemed, saying "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was no more than a short distance from the office, we were able to reach her right away. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Berkshire we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly due to people not knowing the right way to work with it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you get in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the specialised knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will often bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases fairly simply.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Winkfield Place (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with the typical troubles which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.
