It was about seven pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were seated discussing the football results, ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Wellingborough and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota hire car. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, as it was only a few miles from our van, we could arrive at the customer without delay. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and much less concerned. One more job in Northamptonshire done well in my opinion!

Services We Provide:
Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.
AdBlue Contamination
In Northamptonshire we have encountered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.
Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And of course do not crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel may result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances pretty swiftly.
Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel container in the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Northamptonshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it.
Re-Fueling Support
Out of fuel in Wellingborough (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Northamptonshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to refill the car. They will be able to take care of the common troubles that could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
