It was about 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were resting commenting on the recent sports rankings, waiting around for the 8th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Old Wharf and put petrol in a diesel BMW hire car. The unfortunate lady was very irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was just a few miles from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Herefordshire done well in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue Contamination
All around Herefordshire we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not knowing how to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.
So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely never crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.
Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Management
Got an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Herefordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

I was pleased with both your speed and your pricing". Of course we showed up punctually and purged the engine after flushing all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank.

A man contacted us from his house on a close in Old Wharf. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Audi) is not running and is producing very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.
