It was close to 8 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were resting discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Middlewick and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus rental. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled apparently, crying "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we were able to get to her right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another fuel drain in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Wiltshire we are identifying an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases very quickly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Wiltshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Middlewick (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill the car. They will take care of any of the usual issues which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Middlewick - Middlewick Wrong Fuel Drain

A motorist had stopped off a road in Middlewick. His Skoda engine had ceased working and he had no clue what was wrong until eventually he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got no sleep the day before and that must have been the reason.
