It was after 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were relaxing there going over the recent rugby results, prepared for the seventh call to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Calcot and filled petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. She was quite troubled apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was only a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the woman quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Berkshire done well in my mind!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Berkshire we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

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

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is going to result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Berkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Fuel Drain Calcot - Calcot Wrong Fuel Assist

A man phoned us from his house on a road in Calcot. He pronounced, "My car (a Audi) is not running and is making terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us after that he'd be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
