It was close to 10 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Shilton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen hire car in error. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe spot and, because it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and much less apprehensive. One more job in Warwickshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Warwickshire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never start up the engine - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel is going to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations very swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Warwickshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we are able to empty it.
