It was before 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's golf results, ready for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Church Stowe and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall rental car by mistake. She was very affected by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe space and, because it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could find her quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. A job in Northamptonshire done well in my opinion!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in the event that you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to serious and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it immediately. And absolutely do not switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases very quickly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Northamptonshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Church Stowe (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will handle any of the standard issues which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Church Stowe - Church Stowe Fuel Removal

A person phoned us from his house on a close in Church Stowe. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mercedes) is not running and is producing awful sounds when I turn the key." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us he'd be certain to advise people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
