It was just before seven pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting around for the seventh call to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Kingstone and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall hire car. She was pretty irritated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure space and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. One more fuel drain in Herefordshire well done in my mind!

Here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Herefordshire we have identified a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to correct all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank is going to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases pretty swiftly.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We will get out to re-fill your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kingstone - Kingstone Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman had conked out just near a street in Kingstone. His Dacia engine had stopped running and he'd no clue what was the problem right up until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got zero rest the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
