It was around 5 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting talking about the recent football results, ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Cornwell and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MINI hire car by mistake. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from our van, we were able to find the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away contented and a lot less worried. A job in Oxfordshire done well in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated problems.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Oxfordshire we are encountering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being aware of how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.
So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course don't crank the motor - not even to shift it to a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel may well contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations fairly easily.
Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel container sitting in the back of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Oxfordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.
Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Cornwell (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the most common troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Cornwell - Cornwell Vehicle Misfuel
I'd had a terrific day hiking during my off day and was feeling satisfied the following day as I was en route to help a new couple who were on vacation in Cornwell. They stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Mitsubishi, and the car was close to an hour away. I showed up at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife telling off her spouse for turning out to be so confused. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this happens continuously in Oxfordshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, and yet he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate boy. Anyhow, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted so long and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if I made the same error... I'd personally never live it down!

"I put petrol as opposed to diesel which unfortunately wasn't a smart start to our vacation." It was certainly no challenge in the least for our engineer to go out and do the fuel drain.
