It was close to seven pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring! James and me were resting talking over the weekend's tennis rankings, at the ready for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Henbury and filled petrol in a diesel Ford lease car by mistake. She was rather troubled apparently, stating "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could find the customer right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Bristol done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Bristol we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of people not knowing how to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Bristol for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, as long as we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Henbury (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Bristol Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your car. They will handle any of the common issues that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
