It was around 6 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated there discussing the tennis rankings, prepared for the seventh call that day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Chalfont St Giles and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental car by mistake. She was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things sadly do happen. She was able to get the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from us, we were able to get to the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Another fuel drain in Buckinghamshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in case you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue can be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to shift it off the pump. If you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, if we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We can come to fill up the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

They can also deal with the usual problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
