It was just after six pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the rugby results, waiting around for the sixth call of the day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Bromesberrow Heath and put petrol in her diesel Dacia rental. She was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to move the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach her quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away satisfied and much less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we have identified a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to use it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And most certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. Assuming you have started the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations very easily.

Remember that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Bromesberrow Heath (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the usual problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
