We're simply a telephone call away.

It was around five pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting commenting on the weekend's sports results, prepared for the seventh fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Marlow and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda lease car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to get the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance from our van, we could reach the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away satisfied and not so worried. Another misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Buckinghamshire we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to people being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of taking away 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. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Marlow (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the common problems that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
