It was before five pm on a Monday and although we were assured a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting there talking about the weekend's football rankings, waiting around for the 8th call to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Coleshill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG hire car by mistake. She was very affected apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could find her quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Buckinghamshire we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially due to motorists not knowing the way to use it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances very quickly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Buckinghamshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Coleshill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Buckinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your car. They are also able to handle any of the normal issues which might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Coleshill - Coleshill Petrol in Diesel

A man phoned us from Coleshill saying he foolishly pumped the wrong fuel into his diesel Suzuki. "I can't believe it! How could I put unleaded in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer about 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel out of the car. He totally cleaned the fuel system and then put clean diesel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to have the task professionally performed.
