It was close to 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated there discussing the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol station in East Town and put petrol in a diesel Renault rental in error. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure position and, because it was no more than a short distance from us, we were able to reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and much less worried. Another misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Competence :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Wiltshire we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the car.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it asap. And obviously be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases very quickly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Wiltshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a storage shed, provided that we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in East Town (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will handle any of the typical issues which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
