It was about 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were resting talking over the weekend's golf, prepared for the sixth job to arrive. Before long we had the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Holbrook Common and filled petrol in a diesel Nissan rental by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from the office, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained and she could return to the motel she was residing at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue Contamination

In Gloucestershire we have discovered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not being aware of the right way to use it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced 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 a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Holbrook Common (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your car. They will take care of the common problems that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
