It was after six pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were sitting commenting on the rugby results, ready for the next call for the day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Kidlington and put petrol in her diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was pretty troubled apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car into a secure position and, as it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to reach her without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and not so anxious. Another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

Services We Offer:

Below are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in the event that you may have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel will cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather easily.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank at the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Oxfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Kidlington (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They are also able to deal with the normal issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.
