It was just after six pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting there going over the recent rugby, waiting for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Farmcote and filled petrol in her diesel Chevrolet rental car by mistake. She was pretty affected apparently, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure spot and, because it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off contented and not so stressed. One more fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Gloucestershire we have encountered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you find yourself in this predicament don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will likely lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases very simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank laying in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Farmcote (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix the common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Farmcote - Farmcote Petrol in Diesel

I had enjoyed a terrific day cycling during my day off and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I was on the way to aid a new family holidaying in Farmcote. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Kia, and the car was close to half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smiled as I heard to the gal telling her spouse off for being so foolish. "How could you even find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing goes on constantly in Gloucestershire and that it's really nothing to be anxious about, nonetheless he yet still got his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I drained out the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
