It was before 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were relaxing discussing the sports results, at the ready for the next fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Preston and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental car by mistake. She was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably can happen.

AdBlue Contamination

In Brent we have seen increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists not understanding the way to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you end up in this situation do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts have the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Brent for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it for you.
