It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and me were sitting there discussing the football results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Wortley and filled petrol in a diesel Vauxhall lease car in error. She was pretty irritated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from the office, we could find the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at.

Services We Give:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Gloucestershire we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of drivers not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not turn over the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Wortley (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the typical problems that may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Wortley - Wortley Wrong Fuel Drain

Yesterday a man contacted us right after his MINI ground to a halt on a street in Wortley. He had inadvertently put unleaded in his diesel motor and drove so far as the street before needing to halt. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our engineer, who resides locally, reached him in approximately 10 minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 1 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
