Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in The Common

If you've put petrol in your diesel car in The Common (wrong fuel The Common) we are the individuals you need to speak to. We serve the whole of the The Common region and all adjacent areas.

It was about 10 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it had not ceased raining! Ray and me were relaxing talking over the golf rankings, at the ready for the seventh call to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in The Common and put petrol in a diesel SEAT rental in error. She was very irritated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe position and, because it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away contented and a lot less worried. One more fuel drain in Buckinghamshire done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue Contamination

In Buckinghamshire we have identified increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And of course don't turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is going to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business premises in Buckinghamshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in The Common (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the most common issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain The Common - The Common Fuel Rescue

A motorist had stopped off a road in The Common. His Mercedes car had stopped running and he had no clue what was awry until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got zero sleep the night before and that must have been the reason.
