It was about six pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting talking about the football rankings, prepared for the next call to arrive. Finally we had the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Risinghurst and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus rental car in error. She was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we could get to her without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could get back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and less stressed. A fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

Services We Deliver:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Oxfordshire we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly never turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking area. If you did start the car you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases pretty expediently.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Oxfordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Risinghurst (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They can also fix the normal issues which can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
