It was around 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were seated going over the weekend's rugby, at the ready for the 6th call for the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Rhostyllen and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental in error. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to move the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and much less worried. Another job in Wrexham well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Wrexham we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In case you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can potentially trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases very quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Wrexham to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Rhostyllen (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Wrexham Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your automobile. They can also fix any of the common troubles which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
