It was just after 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there talking about the rugby, prepared for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Beckhampton and put petrol in a diesel Ford lease car. She was rather distressed apparently, telling me "I can not believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was just a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and much less concerned. One more job in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over Wiltshire we are identifying more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by drivers not being aware of the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And of course take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank may result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases pretty expediently.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting in the back of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Beckhampton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your automobile. They will be able to take care of any of the most common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
