It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and me were resting there discussing the recent sports, prepared for the seventh telephone call to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Boughspring and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental car by mistake. She was fairly affected it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, since it was just a short distance off from our van, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and much less worried. Another fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue 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 do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.
