It was before 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were relaxing there talking over the football rankings, ready for the seventh call to come in. Eventually we got the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Stitchcombe and put petrol in a diesel Ford rental car in error. She was rather affected it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was only a short distance from us, we were able to find the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at.

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made from a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It can be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases quite expediently.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages.
