It was after ten pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were seated there talking over the weekend's footy, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Houndscroft and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda hire car. She was rather affected it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things often happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe space and, since it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to find the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home contented and much less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my mind!

Services We Deliver:

Below are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s composed of a mix of ionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue is certainly disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can easily contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}
