It was just after seven pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were resting there talking about the recent rugby rankings, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Stroat and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Suzuki hire car. She was rather irritated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was only a few miles off from us, we could find the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you have put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases very simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.
