It was about 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking over the footy, waiting for the 6th call that day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Wroughton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi hire car. She was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. One more job in Wiltshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination
In Wiltshire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. In the instance that you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.
Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial premises in Wiltshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we can certainly drain it.
Re-Fueling Support
Run out of fuel in Wroughton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will handle the usual issues which can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

On the next paragraphs are responses and illustrations of contaminated fuel removal we have carried out in Wroughton:
I'm not excessively inclined to running Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd just come away from home after eating a tasty dinner made for me by the better half, and I was en route to sort out a guy after he had put the wrong petrol in his Jaguar. He was somewhere in Wroughton hence I was there soon. As I drove up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I had my thoughts on other things and failed to realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on problems through starting it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and thus one more delighted client could continue on their trip without any subsequent difficulty. The gentleman could hardly stop thanking me, and this is what helps make operating on weekends in Wiltshire a little bit better for me personally!
Wrong Fuel Drain Wroughton - Wroughton Wrong Fuel Doctor
It truly was what we call the night shift. It was roughly 3:30am and hardly anyone was about. It had been rather dead up to now, and me and John were sitting about browsing a number of old papers. This was a rare quiet hour in Wiltshire. It was indeed so quiet that when the phone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone stated: "I finished my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in the Audi in error". We told him to let us know just where he was located and we headed out, getting to him in Wroughton only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the motor and he said thank you for coming so fast. As we were going back to base we saw two girls at the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a puncture. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.
