It was just before 6 pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Windsor and put petrol in a diesel Mercedes rental car in error. The poor lady was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe position and, because it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off satisfied and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Berkshire done well in my mind!

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Berkshire we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you end up in this scenario do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the practical expertise and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can potentially contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases rather simply.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container at the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Berkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Windsor (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your automobile. They can also handle the most common troubles which may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
