It was just after 8 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there going over the weekend's sports rankings, at the ready for the sixth call to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Cumnor Hill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia rental in error. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at her without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Oxfordshire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Provide:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

In Oxfordshire we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not being totally sure how to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to each other on the automobile.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
