It was before five pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were resting there discussing the recent rugby results, ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Cottisford and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and not so stressed. Another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue can be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can easily result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we can reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir at the rear of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Cottisford (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the typical troubles that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Cottisford - Cottisford Fuel Removal

A man called us from his home on a street in Cottisford. He explained, "My vehicle (a MG) is not starting and is creating awful noises when I flip the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would solve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it drained promptly.
