It was about 6 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated discussing the sports results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Morgans Vale and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover hire car by mistake. She was rather distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to move the car to a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we were able to find her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and less worried. Another misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Wiltshire we have identified a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Morgans Vale (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will handle the common troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Morgans Vale - Morgans Vale Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a wonderful day hiking on the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I was on the way to help a new family on vacation in Morgans Vale. They conked out after putting diesel in their Dacia, and the car was close to half an hour away. I arrived at their car and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her husband off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this happens continuously in Wiltshire and that it's nothing to fret about, even so he still had an earful by his better half. Poor chap. Anyhow, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
