It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Dan and I were resting there discussing the golf rankings, ready for the seventh call for the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Lampeter and put the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI lease car in error. She was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the car to a protected area and, as it was just a few miles from us, we were able to reach her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off calm and not so concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Ceredigion well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can solve any related issues.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in the event that you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is composed of a blend of ionized water (67.5%) and urea.It is certainly harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Phone us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the back of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Ceredigion to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Lampeter (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Ceredigion Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill the car. They will fix any of the most common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Lampeter - Lampeter Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer rang us from his house on a close in Lampeter. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Dacia) is not starting up and is generating awful noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said he would be certain to tell people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
