It was just after 7 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there talking over the recent football rankings, ready for the next call that day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Southend and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen lease car. She was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles from where we were, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and less concerned. A job in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made out of a mixture of urea and deionized water (67.5%).Adblue can be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely do not crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol will often result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances very easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Southend (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the typical problems which can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
