It was just before 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing going over the rugby rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Warham and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental car by mistake. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a safe area and, since it was just a few miles off from us, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in.

Services Our Company Offers:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Herefordshire we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly be careful not to start up the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases rather easily.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Herefordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Fuel Rescue Warham - Warham Fuel Removal

A gentleman had broken down near a street in Warham. His BMW engine had ceased running and he had no clue what was faulty right up until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got no sleep the day before and that must have been the reason why.
