It was after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting talking about the recent football rankings, waiting around for the seventh telephone call that day to come in. Finally we received the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Little Stoke and filled petrol in her diesel Dacia rental. She was quite troubled it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that such things happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the motel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it asap. And definitely never crank the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If you have started the car you would most likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Little Stoke (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They can also handle any of the most common problems which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Little Stoke - Little Stoke Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a wonderful afternoon golfing on my off day and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a young couple on holiday in Little Stoke. They'd conked out after filling petrol into their Citroen, and the car was approximately half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the gal chastising her husband for actually being so confused. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this goes on quite frequently in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing at all to worry about, even so he yet still got his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good-bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the very same mistake... I'd never ever live it down!
