It was just after six pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were sitting discussing the weekend's rugby, waiting for the next call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Steppingley and put petrol in a diesel Smart rental in error. The unfortunate lady was quite distressed it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly happen. She managed to move the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from our van, we could reach her fairly quickly.

Fuel Rescue Steppingley - Steppingley Vehicle Misfuel

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Tuesday and we were on my way to help an old woman after she had put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Steppingley. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a backwater lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location in the TomTom and was with her within 60 minutes. I reached the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I am getting fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only purchased it a week ago right after my previous car, which I had used for in excess of thirty years, eventually stopped working". I completed the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Bedfordshire lady!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made of a mixture of high-purity urea and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue is certainly damaging to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be squirted into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting at the back of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Bedfordshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Steppingley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They can also fix the typical troubles which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Fuel Rescue Steppingley - Steppingley Petrol in Diesel

I had appreciated a great day golfing during my day off and felt satisfied with myself the next morning as I was on the way to help a young family holidaying in Steppingley. They broken down after inserting petrol in their Kia, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed while I listened to the wife chastising her man for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this happens on daily basis in Bedfordshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he all the same had his ear bent by his wife. Poor guy. In any case, I removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved so long and pondered on what my wife would ask me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Steppingley

Reports from our own Steppingley team:

We recently had a call about a motorist who had put the incorrect fuel in his Nissan in Steppingley. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "I couldn't believe how speedy you guys were in getting a technician out to aid me when I erroneously filled my diesel car with unleaded. Thank you so much". As you can imagine we arrived punctually and purged the engine after flushing all the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our fuel drainer said the motorist was raging, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

A lady from Steppingley with her kids in her diesel Dacia had put £50 of petrol at the Shell station. She called us weeping and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that all would be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was visible distressed but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the kids on board."
