It was about 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing talking about the football, waiting for the seventh call to arrive. Finally we had a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Calmsden and put petrol in her diesel Volkswagen hire car in error. She was pretty affected apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was just a short distance from where we were, we could find the lady without delay.

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Gloucestershire we have identified more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely take care not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If you did start the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may well cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases quite simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Calmsden - Calmsden Fuel Rescue

I'd had a great evening golfing during my off day and felt cheerful the following morning as I headed out to aid a new family who were away in Calmsden. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel into their SEAT, and they were about an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I listened to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation occurs everyday in Gloucestershire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same had an ear bashing. Poor chap. At any rate, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved farewell and wondered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
