It was just before seven pm on a Friday and though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated there discussing the recent golf rankings, waiting around for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Blackmore End and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia rental car. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I still can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was just a few miles from where we were, we could find the woman right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Worcestershire we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Blackmore End (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck.
