It was about 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were seated going over the weekend's football results, waiting around for the 8th call to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Coombe Bissett and filled petrol in her diesel Dacia rental by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to relocate the car to a protected spot and, because it was only a few miles away from us, we could find her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could return to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and less anxious. Yet another job in Wiltshire well done in my mind!

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Wiltshire we are finding an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never crank the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can certainly produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases fairly swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container in the rear of the garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Wiltshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Coombe Bissett (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and refill the car. They can also deal with the normal issues that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
