It was just before 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there talking over the recent rugby results, ready for the seventh call that day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Yanworth and put petrol in her diesel Ford rental by mistake. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I still can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and much less anxious. A job in Gloucestershire done well in my mind!

Our Fields of Specialties: Services Our Company Offers:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

In Gloucestershire we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix 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 at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Yanworth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your car. They are also able to take care of any of the usual problems which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Yanworth - Yanworth Fuel Drain

A while back a motorist called us right after his Mazda ground to a halt along a road in Yanworth. He had by mistake put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and drove to the road before being forced to pull up. It was early in the morning and our technician, who stays not far away, got to him in about a quarter hour. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back in the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
