It was around eight pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing there discussing the rugby, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Aberkenfig and filled petrol in a diesel MINI rental. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, as it was just a short distance from our van, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and much less apprehensive. One more job in Bridgend well done in my opinion!

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

AdBlue Contamination

In Bridgend we are discovering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations very quickly.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Fuel Rescue Aberkenfig - Aberkenfig Fuel Drain

I'd had a wonderful afternoon hiking on the weekend and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young couple holidaying in Aberkenfig. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their Hyundai, and were approximately half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling her hubby off for being so daft. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this takes place frequently in Bridgend and that it is nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent. Poor chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed farewell and pondered on what my missus would say to me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
