It was just before 8 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were relaxing there talking about the golf, prepared for the sixth job of the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Bottrells Close and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo rental in error. The poor thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, also that things like this sadly happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, because it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home calm and much less concerned. Another fuel drain in Buckinghamshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Buckinghamshire we have noticed a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to address in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is going to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Have a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.
