A somewhat concerned driver phoned us from the BP filling station at Gloucestershire to inform us that he had put unleaded into his diesel Honda; he wasn't entirely certain how he'd managed to do it.

It was just before seven pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting discussing the weekend's footy, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Collafield and put petrol in her diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to move the car to a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we could reach the customer quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive off calm and much less anxious. One more fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

Services We Give:
Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Gloucestershire we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the vehicle.
Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
If you find you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most certainly never start up the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.
Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we can access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have a fuel container sitting at the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can drain it.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Collafield (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They can also fix the most common problems which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

We got a call from a man whose Peugeot had ground to a halt on a street because he put the wrong fuel in it. "I confused the pumps and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle by mistake. These guys came out and fixed the problem right after my car quit." We purged the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the engine thoroughly and the gentleman could continue with his sheduled delivery.

A man who had unfortunately put unleaded in his diesel Peugeot called us for help at the Esso petrol filling station in Collafield. He thought it would be good to top up before continuing on to the local holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded as opposed to diesel and it wasn't a good start to our holiday break." It was really no trouble by any means for our technician to go along and perform the fuel drain. We hope they had a good getaway.
