It was just after 6 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated going over the recent footy, ready for the next call to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Gloucestershire and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this sadly happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady fairly quickly.

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue In Diesel
All around Gloucestershire we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.
Well, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
Call us in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances very quickly.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Gloucestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.
Run Out of Fuel Service
Run out of fuel in Gloucestershire (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your car. They will handle any of the common problems that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Fuel Drain Gloucestershire - Gloucestershire Vehicle Misfuel
I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing on my holiday and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I was on the way to help a new family who were vacationing in Gloucestershire. They had conked out after putting diesel in their Mitsubishi, and the car was around an hour away. I showed up at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her partner for being so daft. "Just how could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this goes on all the time in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, and yet he still got an ear bashing by his better half. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove away I shouted good-bye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Gloucestershire
Testimonies from our Gloucestershire technicians:
Now I'm certainly not very excited about running on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I'd only just departed the wife and kids after having a magnificent Sunday roast made for us by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a fellow because he put the wrong fuel in his Mitsubishi. He was situated in Gloucestershire therefore I arrived on scene very quickly. Just as I drove up at the car and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I had my attention on stuff and did not grasp that I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any kind of harm through starting it?" I explained that there probably should not be problems and that I'd drain the contaminated fuel quickly. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with some suitable fuel, and then another happy motorist could continue their journey without any subsequent fuss. The gentleman could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make operating on Sundays in Gloucestershire just that tiny bit better to me!
Fuel Removal Gloucestershire - Gloucestershire Wrong Fuel
This really was what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was around 3:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had become pretty dead until now, and me and John were relaxing browsing a number of old magazines. That was an unusual restful time in Gloucestershire. It was in fact that peaceful that the moment the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I ended my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Land Rover". We got him to inform us just where the car was and we headed out, reaching him in Gloucestershire only an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car and he said thanks a lot for showing up so promptly. While we were going back home we spotted two young women on the side of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, to their delight.
