It was before 5 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting going over the recent sports results, ready for the sixth call that day to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Hatherop and put the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW rental. The unfortunate thing was quite affected apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe area and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to get to the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in.

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue can be devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical skills and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may well produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations fairly simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Hatherop (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car. They can also fix any of the typical troubles that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Hatherop - Hatherop Vehicle Misfuel

I appreciated a great day fishing on my holiday and felt pleased the next day as I set off to aid a young family vacationing in Hatherop. They'd broken down after putting petrol in their Renault, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs constantly in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, but he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyhow, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
