It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! James and me were sitting there commenting on the golf results, waiting for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Woodcock and filled petrol in a diesel Peugeot hire car. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this do happen. She was able to move the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we could get to her quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and not so stressed. Another fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my books!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

Below are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do if you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a mix of urea (32.5%) and deionized water.It can be harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And definitely take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases very swiftly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car Woodcock - Woodcock Wrong Fuel in Car

A gentleman called us from his house on a road in Woodcock. He said, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not running and is generating terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would solve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said he'd be certain to explain to people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
