It was around seven pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not ceased raining! James and I were relaxing talking over the sports, waiting for the 6th call to arrive. Finally we got the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Tuffley and filled petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe position and, as it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to find the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:
Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Gloucestershire we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And definitely never start up the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. If you did start the car you will probably have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations pretty swiftly.
Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Have an old fuel reservoir at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
Re-Fueling Services
Out of fuel in Tuffley (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They can also take care of the typical issues that can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Tuffley - Tuffley Vehicle Misfuel
I had a fantastic afternoon golfing during my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple on holiday in Tuffley. They stopped after putting petrol in their Lexus, and they were about an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so stupid. "How could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Gloucestershire and that it's in reality nothing at all to stress about, even so he still had his ear bent. Unlucky chap. In any case, I drained all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove away I shouted so long and thought about what my wife would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
