It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Ryan and me were seated there going over the golf rankings, ready for the 8th telephone call to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Outwoods and filled petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental. The poor lady was somewhat affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was just a short distance from us, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in.

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

In Warwickshire we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And obviously take care not to start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In case you have started the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances fairly simply.

Bear in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial properties in Warwickshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.
