It was just after 5 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the recent golf results, waiting for the seventh call that day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Farnborough and put petrol in her diesel SEAT rental in error. She was fairly affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from where we were, we could reach the lady without delay. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home contented and much less apprehensive. Another job in Berkshire done well in my opinion!

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Sunday and we were off to help an old lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall in Farnborough. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural lane on route to see her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel because I had just acquired it several days back because my other car, which I had had for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Berkshire woman!

Wrong Fuel Drain Farnborough - Farnborough Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman rang us from his home on a street in Farnborough. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Renault) is not starting up and is producing awful noises when I turn the key." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would remedy the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there quickly, did the drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He told us he would be sure to educate people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.

Our Areas of Expertise :

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

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do if you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s composed of a mixture of deionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, causing catastrophic and costly problems to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Berkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Farnborough (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Berkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They will fix the most common issues which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A while back a man telephoned us after his Hyundai cut out on a road in Farnborough.

It was still in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who lives nearby, was with him in less than a quarter hour.

Recent Fuel Drains in Farnborough

Stories from our own Farnborough personnel:

No one likes being stuck in a automobile full of the improper fuel in the middle of the street. Our last customer who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (Honda) in Farnborough had exactly that issue: "You may already know that I wrongly filled my petrol car with diesel a few days ago. I was so bothered about my error that I was actually in tears. But I didn't need to worry as you were terrific in fixing it."

Fuel Rescue Farnborough - Farnborough Fuel Drain

A young lady driving in Farnborough phoned us after she had tried to get her misfueled car to the office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford and, like plenty before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill the car with diesel and it'd be okay. The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she got to the entrance of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted inside one hour while she was in the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you fixed my vehicle."
