It was close to 5 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were seated there discussing the recent footy results, at the ready for the 6th job to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Sherington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche hire car in error. The poor thing was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to get to the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive home contented and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Buckinghamshire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you discover youself to be in this situation don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians possess the technical skills and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have a fuel tank in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel Sherington - Sherington Fuel Removal

I enjoyed a fantastic afternoon fishing during the weekend and felt contented the following working day as I was on the way to aid a new family who were vacationing in Sherington. They'd conked out after adding the wrong fuel into their Audi, and were about an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass on a regular basis in Buckinghamshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what my missus would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
