Wrong fuel in your car in Woodstock? Welcome to WrongFuelSoS.com. Give us a call and find out how we can help to get you back on the road once again.

It was about 5 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the weekend's football, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Woodstock and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Porsche rental car. She was very affected apparently, saying "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure area and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could get to the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. A job in Oxfordshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Oxfordshire we have noticed a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations quite swiftly.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the back of the garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in Oxfordshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Woodstock (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will handle the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

We Get you Going Again

Wrong Fuel Woodstock - Woodstock Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman rang us from his house on a close in Woodstock. He said, "My car (a BMW) is not running and is generating terrible sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would remedy the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up once again with untainted Diesel. He said that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
