Fuel Removal Preston - Preston Fuel Drain
Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Wednesday and we were on my way to assist an older woman who put petrol in her diesel BMW in Preston. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up along a rural lane on the way to see her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only just bought it a couple of days back right after my other one, which I'd owned for over 25 years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Wiltshire woman!

AdBlue Contamination
In Wiltshire we have identified a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not being totally sure the way to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely do not start the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will often produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations fairly expediently.
Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Wiltshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.
