It was before six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there going over the recent football, waiting for the sixth telephone call to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Lent and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MINI hire car by mistake. The poor lady was rather troubled it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure space and, since it was just a few minutes from our van, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

Offered Services:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Buckinghamshire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Remember that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container in the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in Buckinghamshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Lent (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They can also fix any of the common problems that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

A gentleman called us from Lent to say he mistakenly pumped the wrong fuel in his diesel Volkswagen. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car!" It only took the engineer approximately fifty minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel from the vehicle. He completely flushed the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the work properly performed.
