Incorrect fuel in your car in Old Town? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this situatiuon and get you driving once again with our expert fuel drain service.

It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and me were seated discussing the recent football rankings, prepared for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Old Town and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home satisfied and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made out of a mix of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).It is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And most definitely do not start up the engine - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will often cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank placed at the back of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, if we can access it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Old Town (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to fix any of the common issues that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
