Petrol in diesel Lostwithiel? We have the ability to service the Lostwithiel region really well due to the fact that one of our engineers lives in the neighborhood and is consequently a stone's throw from the action.

We're only a telephone call away.

It was just before 7 pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were resting there going over the weekend's footy rankings, waiting around for the seventh call for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Lostwithiel and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche rental by mistake. She was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was just a short distance from us, we could reach her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and much less anxious. Yet another job in Cornwall done well in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Assist Lostwithiel - Lostwithiel Fuel Drain

What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and we were off to assist an older woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Porsche in Lostwithiel. I'd been told she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded on a backwater lane en route to see her family. I plugged her location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only bought it a short while ago after my former car, which I'd used for in excess of thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Cornwall lady!

Our Services:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any connected problems.

Tank with undesired fuel - You may not like petrol in your diesel tank but mishaps happen. You will notice some changes in the performance of your vehicle like spluttering and stalling. An abnormal amount of smoke can be noticed in the exhaust. Other problems may begin to show if this incorrect fuel is not given immediate action.

An engine contaminated with water - If you fill your car with water and not with the wrong fuel you are also in danger of losing your engine. Engine filled with water has to be completely drained. Without draining, it will get rusty, and other problems will soon follow. Our professionals will drain your engine without much sweat. We also give help with filter replacement.

Putting AdBlue to your fuel tank - AdBlue contamination occurs when you put AdBlue in your fuel tank, generally by mistake. It happens when people don't properly comprehend what it's for. AdBlue is not a fuel additive, it's a liquid that minimizes harmful emissions from the exhaust, and it is likely to go in a special tank reserved for the purpose. More motorists are falling foul of AdBlue contamination every day, and it's our responsibility to fix it for you.

Contaminating your tank with red diesel - Red diesel sometimes finds its way into fuel tanks accidentally. It can easily occur if you are distracted or tired, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. Should this happen to you unexpectedly, just contact us and we'll do the job for you.

Old and unused fuel in your tank - As time passes by, fuel that was stored for a long period of time will have its quality degrade. Utilizing it to your vehicle might give you trouble. This old fuel has to be drained and replaced.
