It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased raining! Brian and me were relaxing there commenting on the football, waiting around for the sixth telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Iver Heath and put petrol in her diesel Skoda hire car. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, since it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another job in Buckinghamshire well done in my books!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Buckinghamshire we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations fairly simply.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel container in the rear of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Iver Heath - Iver Heath Fuel Removal
A young lady from Iver Heath with her little ones in her diesel Jaguar had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Shell station. She phoned us sobbing and really worried as she had never wrong fuelled previously and didn't know what could happen to her car . We told her that everything should be okay and that she would be in action quickly. When we got there she was visible upset but as our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the kids in the back."
