It was around six pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting talking over the sports, prepared for the next job that day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Pancakehill and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar hire car in error. She was quite affected apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we were able to get to the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away calm and not so apprehensive. Another job in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

Services We Provide:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Gloucestershire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you discover youself to be in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases rather quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container laying in the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Pancakehill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
