It was about 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated there going over the rugby rankings, prepared for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Workhouse End and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MINI rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather affected it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could go home to the motel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive away calm and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Bedfordshire well done in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Bedfordshire we are encountering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely do not switch on the motor - not even to move it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is going to produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations rather expediently.

Take note that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Bedfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a garage, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Workhouse End (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the usual problems which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
