It was before 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy, waiting for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Ashley and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi lease car. The unfortunate thing was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got very wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and much less stressed. Another job in Northamptonshire well done in my mind!

Fuel Drain Ashley - Ashley Vehicle Misfuel
Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel Ford in Ashley. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a rural road on route to see her grandchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour. I reached the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was working she explained, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just acquired it a short while ago right after my previous car, which I had for about twenty years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Northamptonshire lady!

He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car."

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.
AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Northamptonshire we have encountered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously don't start the car - not even to move it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty easily.
Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Northamptonshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it.

Recent Fuel Drains in Ashley
Tales from our own Ashley team:
A young person who had recently passed his test had misfueled his Lexus by getting unleaded in the diesel at the service station close to Ashley. He said, "This is just the second time I have put fuel in my vehicle from the time when I bought it and I do not know how to proceed." He was also scared because his father had only just purchased him the car. He located us on the web and so called us right away, frightened about what he needed to do. Our person on the telephones explained to him that we could be on scene within 45 minutes and to not move the vehicle while waiting. We did the drain on his car and he mentioned how impressed he was it was dealt with so rapidly and without complication at all.
Petrol in Diesel Ashley - Ashley Wrong Fuel Doctor
This was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to dawn and nobody was around. It had been rather dead so far, and me and John were sitting around perusing several old newspapers. It was an unusual quiet hour in Northamptonshire. It was in fact that quiet that when the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The person said: "I only just completed my overnight shift and stupidly filled petrol in my Mercedes". We got him to tell us exactly where the car was located and we headed out, arriving in Ashley no more than half an hour later. The fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thanks a lot for getting there so rapidly. While we were returning to the office we spotted two girls on the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we got out to change it, much to their delight.
