Wrong fuel in your car in Stourton? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this time of need and get you moving once again with our expert fuel removal services.

It was around ten pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the football results, ready for the 8th call of the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Stourton and put petrol in her diesel Citroen hire car in error. The poor thing was fairly affected apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was only a short distance from us, we were able to find her swiftly. The bad fuel was removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away satisfied and less apprehensive. Another job in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do if you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is actually damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And absolutely never turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Stourton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They will deal with the common issues which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Stourton - Stourton Vehicle Misfuel

I appreciated a perfect evening cycling during my off day and was feeling contented the following day as I set out to help a young family who were on holiday in Stourton. They broken down after filling petrol into their Hyundai, and they were close to an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked as I heard to the wife chastising her spouse for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this occurs on a regular basis in Wiltshire and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, even so he still had his ear bent. Poor guy. In any case, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and thought about what my wife would do to me if I did the same thing... I would never ever live it down!
