It was before 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were seated there discussing the weekend's golf results, ready for the 8th job for the day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Gosford and filled petrol in her diesel MG lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very agitated apparently, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes from our van, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away satisfied and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Herefordshire done well in my mind!

If you have unleaded in the diesel car or truck, or diesel in the petrol car (and shockingly most individuals do this at least once at some time) - we handle it there and then. Wrong Fuel SoS' professional fuel drainers are available 24 hours a day. Just call our hotline and someone will come out, flush the contaminated fuel and get you quickly back on the road.

Our Fields of Specialties: Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Herefordshire we have identified more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Herefordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Gosford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the typical troubles that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
