It was just after 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were sitting there commenting on the recent sports results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Bodenham Moor and put petrol in a diesel Land Rover rental by mistake. The poor lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to find her right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. A fuel drain in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Herefordshire we are discovering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to drivers not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Herefordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a garage, providing we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Bodenham Moor (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car. They are also able to deal with any of the common troubles which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Bodenham Moor - Bodenham Moor Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a fantastic evening fishing on my holiday and felt pleased the following working day as I set off to aid a young family holidaying in Bodenham Moor. They had stopped after filling diesel into their Volvo, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this comes to pass frequently in Herefordshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. In any case, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
