It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were sitting talking about the recent rugby results, prepared for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Kempston and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen rental car. The poor lady was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I can not believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and much less worried. A job in Bedfordshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Experience :

Listed here are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Bedfordshire we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations very expediently.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial properties in Bedfordshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Kempston - Kempston Vehicle Misfuel

A man had stopped off a street in Kempston. His Volvo motor had stopped working and he'd no idea what was faulty until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little rest the day before and that must have been precisely why.
