It was before 7 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were relaxing talking about the recent rugby results, waiting for the 8th job for the day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Holloway and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet rental car. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected area and, because it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away relaxed and less worried.

Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Berkshire we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by people not being totally sure how to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you end up in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical expertise and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may well result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Berkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Holloway - Holloway Wrong Fuel in Car

A person rang us from his place on a street in Holloway. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Volkswagen) is not running and is creating dreadful noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He said he would be sure to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
