It was about seven pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and me were seated there discussing the football, prepared for the next fuel drain to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Hannington and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Vauxhall rental car in error. She was rather affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, because it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could get back to the motel she was lodging in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home satisfied and not so concerned.

Services Our Company Offers:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And of course never start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Wiltshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of fuel in Hannington (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your automobile.
