It was before five pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were seated there talking about the weekend's footy, waiting for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Booker and put petrol in her diesel Honda hire car by mistake. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was only a few minutes from us, we could reach the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got really wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and much less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Buckinghamshire we are noticing a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely never turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Booker (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Buckinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill the car. They will be able to deal with the common issues that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Booker - Booker Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman called us from his house on a street in Booker. He pronounced, "My car (a Audi) is not running and is making terrible noises when I turn the key." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, carried out the drain and filled him up once again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be certain to educate people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
