It was around ten pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were resting talking over the recent golf rankings, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Clewer New Town and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen hire car by mistake. She was fairly troubled it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe position and, as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home contented and less worried. One more job in Berkshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Berkshire we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the specialised skills and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may well bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations rather simply.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business properties in Berkshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Clewer New Town (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the normal troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Clewer New Town - Clewer New Town Fuel Drain

I had a terrific day fishing during my day off and felt delighted the next working day as I set off to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Clewer New Town. They had stopped after putting petrol into their SEAT, and the car was around half an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the gal telling her man off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this problem happens continuously in Berkshire and that it's nothing to fret about, even so he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
