It was just before six pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing talking about the golf rankings, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Before long we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Barkham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to move the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Berkshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Berkshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the car.
So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
Give us a call if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can certainly lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases quite expediently.
Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Have an old fuel tank placed at the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Berkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Fuel Drain Barkham - Barkham Wrong Fuel Assist
A young lady driving in Barkham phoned us shortly after she had managed to get her wrong fuelled car to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel Peugeot and, like many prior to her, believed that she could just top up the vehicle with diesel and it would run no problem. The car was chugging and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it repaired in an hour while she was in the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you sorted my vehicle."
