It was close to 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! James and I were relaxing there talking over the recent footy, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Cheltenham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda hire car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing that it was just a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed so she could get back to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. One more job in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you?ve poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water (67.5%).It tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, bringing about serious and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In case you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations rather easily.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Gloucestershire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Cheltenham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the usual problems that may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Cheltenham - Cheltenham Petrol in Diesel

A person phoned us from Cheltenham saying he had stupidly pumped unleaded in to his diesel Lexus. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my nice diesel car!" It took the engineer around fifty minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel from the car. He totally purged the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the work properly completed.
