It was just after six pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were sitting discussing the recent golf, prepared for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Upper Swell and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford hire car. She was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in case you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Call us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases quite simply.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Upper Swell - Upper Swell Wrong Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a perfect afternoon fishing on my off day and was feeling contented with myself the next working day as I set out to help a young family who were on holiday in Upper Swell. They pulled over after filling diesel in their Honda, and the car was about half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked while I heard to the wife telling off her spouse for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this occurs continuously in Gloucestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, nevertheless he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!
