It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and me were resting there talking about the football results, prepared for the sixth call that day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Pangbourne and put petrol in her diesel Jaguar rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to find the lady quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. Another job in Berkshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise :

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

Tank with incorrect fuel - You may not want petrol in your diesel tank but mishaps happen. You will notice some changes in the overall performance of your car like coughing and stalling. An unusual amount of smoke can be noticed in the exhaust. Other issues may start to show if this wrong fuel is not handled.

Tank filled up with water - Water can contaminate your engine and it must be taken out of the fuel system to prevent damages and rust in your engine. When you accelerate hard your engine, it may start to rev up and jolt. Contamination like this is not only common in boats. This can happen to the vehicle too due to the jerry cans that were previously utilized as a water container then later used as fuel container where water was not completely emptied.

AdBlue in your tank - Like the wrong fuel in the wrong place, people tend to add AdBlue to their engine. Most of them misunderstand the goal of AdBlue. It should go in a special compartment around the engine, and not the engine itself. It lessens emissions. AdBlue contamination numbers are rising steadily. In the event you experience that problem, let us handle it for you.

Red Diesel in the Tank - Accidentally filling the tank is the most common cause of this. 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 give us a call and we'll do the job for you.

Tank with old and degraded fuel - The quality of fuel will be lost if the car is on standby and has been idle for some time. Its fuel on the tank will degrade if left unused. Your engine might start and run, but it probably will not run as well. Old fuel should be drained out, and it's a service we offer.

Fuel Removal Pangbourne - Pangbourne Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a great day fishing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I set off to assist a new family who were on holiday in Pangbourne. They stopped after adding petrol in their BMW, and the car was close to half an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the lady berating her spouse for being so silly. "How could you conceivably be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs quite frequently in Berkshire and that it's actually nothing to be concerned about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor boy. Anyways, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
