Vehicle Misfuel Spencers Wood - Spencers Wood Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an older lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai in Spencers Wood. I had been told she had left the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I plugged the location straight into the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I had just got it a short while back right after my former one, which I had used for about thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Berkshire lady!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Berkshire we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Berkshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
