We can assist you with these mis-fuel mistakes.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Gloucestershire we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the automobile.
So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In case you end up in this scenario do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts have the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.
Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Petrol in Diesel Down Hatherley - Down Hatherley Wrong Fuel Assist
Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and I was on the way to help an elder woman who had put petrol in her diesel Smart in Down Hatherley. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was stranded on a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I reached the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel as I had just purchased it a week ago because my previous car, which I'd had for over 25 years, eventually stopped working". I got the job completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Gloucestershire lady!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Down Hatherley - Down Hatherley Vehicle Misfuel
This was what is called the night shift. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and almost noone was around. It was fairly uneventful until now, and me and Mark were loafing looking through some old papers. It was an uncommon restful hour in Gloucestershire. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The motorist explained: "I have finished my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in my SEAT by mistake". We told him to let us know where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Down Hatherley an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car. He thanked us profusely for getting there so rapidly. As we were going back to the depot we found two young women on the side of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we stopped to change it, much to their elation.
