It was after eight pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were seated discussing the football, ready for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Critchill and put petrol in a diesel Nissan rental in error. The poor lady was pretty irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that such things sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, because it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could go home to the hotel she was staying in.

Wrong Fuel in Car Critchill - Critchill Petrol in Diesel
I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon cycling during my afternoon off and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I set off to assist a young couple vacationing in Critchill. They stopped after inserting diesel in their SEAT, and were approximately an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed as I listened to the gal telling her man off for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this happens all the time in Somerset and that it's nothing to stress about, however he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt sorry for the lad. At any rate, I drained out all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I waved good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

AdBlue In Diesel
All over Somerset we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not knowing the way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the car.
Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases fairly simply.
You should know that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Fuel Rescue Critchill - Critchill Wrong Fuel
A woman from Critchill with a full car of little ones in her diesel Peugeot had filled her car with £40 of petrol at the Co Op service station. She phoned us weeping and really distraught as she had never wrong fuelled and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that everything should be fine and that she would be up and running in no time at all. When we arrived she was still upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."
