Wrong Fuel Drain Westbury - Westbury Vehicle Misfuel
What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel BMW in Westbury. She told us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up on a country road on the way to see her godchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I got to the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I'd just acquired it several days ago after my other car, which I owned for over thirty years, finally broke down". I finished the job and she offered me a toffee and said thank you. Such a delightful Wiltshire woman!

AdBlue In Diesel
All around Wiltshire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from people not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.
Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.
In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to crank the car - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations pretty quickly.
Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
