It was after 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting there talking over the weekend's tennis, waiting around for the sixth job of the day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Rockwell End and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT lease car. She was very affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, since it was only a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and a lot less worried. One more misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire well done in my books!

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Buckinghamshire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases quite expediently.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Rockwell End (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Buckinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill the car. They can also fix the normal issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Rockwell End - Rockwell End Fuel Rescue

The other day a youngster contacted us because his SEAT cut out on a road in Rockwell End. He had unintentionally put petrol in his diesel car and was only able to get as far as the road before being forced to halt. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our technician, who resides nearby, got to him in approximately 15 minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Many kudos to you for your prompt response, especially at 4 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
