It was before ten pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were sitting there talking about the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Nupend and put petrol in her diesel BMW rental car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected apparently, stating "I can not believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could get to the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off contented and less concerned. A misfuel correction in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

What to do if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue tends to be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely never start up the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is going to bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Nupend (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

They are also able to handle any of the normal issues which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Nupend - Nupend Fuel Drain

A gentleman phoned us from his residence on a street in Nupend. He explained, "My vehicle (a Dacia) is not starting up and is producing dreadful sounds when I turn the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle however thought he would resolve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to explain to people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
