It was around eight pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting there going over the weekend's footy, waiting for the next call to come in. Before long we got the call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Malmesbury and put petrol in a diesel Honda lease car by mistake. She was quite distressed it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was staying in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away contented and less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Wiltshire we have seen more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And absolutely don't start the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. Assuming you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations pretty quickly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Malmesbury (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car. They can also fix any of the usual problems that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
