It was just after six pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were relaxing discussing the recent tennis, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Williamscot and put the wrong fuel in her diesel elegant Peugeot 505 rental car in error. The poor lady was very irritated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got really wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off calm and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Oxfordshire well done in my opinion!

Waste Fuel Removal
Got an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Oxfordshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.
Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.
Be aware that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be completely wet and useless.
Wrong Fuel in Car in OX17 Postcode - Williamscot Misfueling
What a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Saturday and I was on the way to assist an elder woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark red Peugeot 307 in Williamscot. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and stranded on a country lane on route to see her godchildren. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the car and drained the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was working she said to me, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd only just acquired it a week back when my other car, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. What a delightful Oxfordshire lady!

He said, "This is the third time I have put fuel in my car from the time when I purchased it and I have no idea of what to do." He was also scared because his father had just recently paid for the car. He discovered our company on the net and so called us instantly, scared about what he should do.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite quiet so far, and me and Paul were sitting reading through some old articles. It was a rare peaceful hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was indeed so calm that the instant my mobile inevitably rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the phone stated: "I have just concluded my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my cobalt blue MINI Cooper Countryman in error". We instructed him to tell us just where the car was and we set off, arriving in Williamscot less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the engine and he thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. While we were coming back to the depot we noticed two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we pulled up to change it, much to their elation.

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
