It was before 5 pm on a Friday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing there going over the recent golf rankings, waiting around for the seventh call that day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Old Town and put petrol in a diesel Peugeot hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was just a short distance from where we were, we were able to reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and not so worried. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Wiltshire we have encountered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely take care not to start the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Old Town (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

Fuel Rescue Old Town - Old Town Fuel Drain

A man rang us from his house on a close in Old Town. He explained, "My car (a Skoda) is not starting up and is generating dreadful sounds when I flip the ignition." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle however reckoned he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.
