It was close to 7 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were resting there discussing the footy results, ready for the seventh fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Sunnymead and put petrol in her diesel precious Hyundai Entourage rental car in error. She was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe space and, since it was just a few minutes from the office, we could find the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and less stressed. A fuel drain in Oxfordshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases pretty simply.
Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains

As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

This really was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 2 in the morning and noone was around. It had been rather quiet up to now, and John and I were sitting about reading a number of old newspapers. This was a rare calm hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was in fact that relaxing that the moment my mobile inevitably rang I leaped! The customer said: "I have just finished my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in the mum's Vauxhall Combo in error". We asked him to tell us where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Sunnymead only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the vehicle. He thanked us for coming out so quickly. As we were coming back home we noticed two young ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their delight.
