It was just after five pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the tennis, at the ready for the seventh call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Weston-on-the-Green and filled petrol in her diesel Nissan rental by mistake. She was pretty troubled apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and a lot less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Oxfordshire we have discovered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists being unsure of the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it right away. And most definitely never switch on the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather expediently.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying in the back of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Weston-on-the-Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle any of the standard troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Weston-on-the-Green - Weston-on-the-Green Wrong Fuel

A motorist had conked out off a street in Weston-on-the-Green. His Citroen engine had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was awry until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can not believe that I did not comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got very little rest the night before and that must have been precisely why.
