It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the sixth job for the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Didbrook and filled petrol in her diesel Peugeot rental in error. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing that it was only a few miles from where we were, we could find the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and a lot less concerned. Yet another job in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Remember though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed at the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help 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 draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Didbrook (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the typical problems that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Didbrook - Didbrook Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a perfect day hiking on my off day and felt contented with myself the following morning as I was en route to help a new family away in Didbrook. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their Jaguar, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife telling her man off for being so daft. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass on daily basis in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, and yet he yet still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
