It was around 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the rugby, at the ready for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Poundon and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure spot and, as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and less stressed. Yet another job in Buckinghamshire done well in my books!

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

AdBlue Contamination

All around Buckinghamshire we have seen an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not understanding how to work with it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Any time you discover youself to be in this predicament do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians possess the practical knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances very swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking spot we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the rear of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Poundon (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your automobile. They can also fix the usual problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Poundon - Poundon Wrong Fuel Doctor

I had appreciated a wonderful day hiking on my day off and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set off to help a new family away in Poundon. They stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their Toyota, and were close to an hour away. I got there at their position and smiled while I heard to the girl telling her spouse off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this situation takes place regularly in Buckinghamshire and that it's in reality nothing to be concerned about, and yet he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted good bye and considered what my wife would do to me if I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
