It was about 9 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were resting there going over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the 6th job to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Coaley and filled petrol in her diesel Volkswagen lease car in error. The poor lady was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Gloucestershire we are identifying progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it right away. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations rather quickly.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Coaley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They can also handle the normal problems that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
