It was just after 9 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the tennis rankings, waiting around for the next call that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Charlton and put petrol in her diesel Skoda lease car. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few miles from us, we could reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - A diesel engine filled up with petrol is more serious than a petrol tank pumped with diesel. Engine may begin to splutter and may stall. A lot of smoke may be seen also. But whatever it is, we're prepared to get you back on the road.

Water contamination of your engine - This can rev up your engine and make it thrust or stutter when you accelerate. And even worse, it results in early rusting of your fuel system. This happens a lot with the boats. It's because people typically use water cans to fuel the boats without draining them appropriately. The only solution is to drain clean your fuel tank. That's just what we can do for you and can even give replacement filters.

AdBlue in your Diesel tank - AdBlue is not a fuel additive. This is contrary to what lots of people believe. AdBlue is a liquid form that?s added via a separate tank to help reduce the dangerous effects of your engine?s emission. People are misinformed concerning this liquid so they directly mixed it with fuel or they only accidentally did it. Should you be one of the victims of this contamination, call us so we can help youto deal with AdBlue.

Red diesel contamination - This incident rarely happens to car owners but at times it finds its way to a car?s tank. There are circumstances were filling up this fuel occur because of tiredness or distraction. According to AA, there are 1500 garages in UK that sell this diesel. There is indeed a chance of it getting in to your tank. If that happens, we know how to handle it.

Attempting to drive utilizing old and stale fuel - Fuel degrades after some time, something that is common when the car has been sitting, not driven, for a while, or the fuel has been stored for some time. The engine may start and run but there will be problems you'll notice. Old fuel needs to be drained out, and it's a service we provide.

Fuel Rescue Charlton - Charlton Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a great day hiking on my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I was en route to aid a new couple who were vacationing in Charlton. They'd pulled over after inserting diesel into their Lexus, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this happens regularly in Oxfordshire and that it's in reality nothing to stress about, and yet he still got an earful by his better half. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyhow, I extracted all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I made the same error... I would under no circumstances live it down!
