It was around 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting there commenting on the recent football rankings, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Lower Caversham and put petrol in her diesel Citroen lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She was able to move the car into a protected area and, as it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel
All over Berkshire we have found a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being aware of the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
Give us a call if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very swiftly.
Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
Management of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Berkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Lower Caversham - Lower Caversham Petrol in Diesel
A customer from Lower Caversham with a full car of children in her diesel Fiat had put £42 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that everything would be fine and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the youngsters on board."
