It was around six pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Mark and me were seated there talking over the golf rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call that day to come in. Finally we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Reading and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar hire car in error. The poor lady was pretty troubled apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Berkshire we have discovered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the car.
Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely never turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is going to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances very expediently.
Remember however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in Berkshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.
Out of Fuel Support
Out of fuel in Reading (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to handle any of the normal problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Assist Reading - Reading Wrong Fuel Drain
A couple weeks ago a man telephoned us soon after his Volkswagen stopped in the middle of a road in Reading. He had by mistake put petrol in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before having to halt. It was early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides nearby, was with him in less than 15 minutes. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 2 a.m., I appreciate it."
Recent Fuel Drains in Reading
Several of the usual details we come across from our engineers in Reading:
We completed a wrong fuel retrieval job near a lovely residential home in Reading recently. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to virtually arrive at home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, even though it was rather late at night, and performed a full fuel drain and purge on the Ford to everyone's satisfaction.
Vehicle Misfuel Reading - Reading Fuel Rescue
A gentleman phoned us from his Porsche where he had conked out on the busy road. "I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car and I ultimately realised it a few miles down the road!" Happily we were able to attend him in a reasonably short time, considering the traffic, and he was shortly back on his way.
Vehicle Misfuel Reading - Reading Wrong Fuel
A person called us from Reading saying he had mistakenly pumped petrol into his diesel Kia. "Shocking! I can't believe I put petrol in my lovely diesel car!" It took our engineer around fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. He thoroughly purged the fuel system and then put clean fuel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it hadn't cost him car dealership prices to have the work professionally performed.
