It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were resting there commenting on the rugby results, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Nether Worton and put petrol in a diesel Honda rental in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things sadly often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Oxfordshire done well in my books!

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the car.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously don't start the car - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances rather easily.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Oxfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Nether Worton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill the car. They can also deal with the normal problems that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Nether Worton - Nether Worton Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a great day cycling during the weekend and was feeling pleased with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a new couple who were on holiday in Nether Worton. They pulled over after adding diesel into their Peugeot, and they were roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her man for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on continuously in Oxfordshire and that it's really nothing to fret about, even so he all the same had an earful by his wife. Poor lad. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove off I waved good bye and considered what my wife would tell me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would never ever live it down!
