It was about ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were sitting there commenting on the tennis rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Westcourt and put the wrong fuel in a diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, since it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to the lady quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could get back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and much less stressed. One more job in Wiltshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have identified increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations very swiftly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Westcourt (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car. They will deal with the typical problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Westcourt - Westcourt Wrong Fuel Doctor

I enjoyed a terrific evening cycling during my holiday and was feeling contented the next working day as I set out to assist a young family vacationing in Westcourt. They stopped after inserting petrol in their Volvo, and were close to half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her man off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing goes on continuously in Wiltshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to worry about, but he all the same had an earful by his missus. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. As they drove off I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
