It was after eight pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the recent tennis results, at the ready for the sixth job to arrive. In due time we got the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Little Kingshill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from us, we were able to arrive at the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another job in Buckinghamshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Buckinghamshire we are identifying more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly take care not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Buckinghamshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a garage, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Little Kingshill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill the car. They can also handle the normal problems which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A guy had broken down just off a road in Little Kingshill. His Mercedes car had stopped operating and he'd no clue what was awry until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle.
