It was around ten pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated commenting on the weekend's sports results, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Cainscross and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai rental in error. She was quite distressed it seemed, crying "I can not believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Gloucestershire we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely never start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases rather swiftly.

Remember that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
