It was around ten pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were relaxing there going over the rugby results, waiting for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Titchmarsh and put petrol in a diesel Peugeot lease car. The poor thing was quite troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from the office, we could find her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and less anxious. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my mind!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Titchmarsh - Titchmarsh Petrol in Diesel
Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and I was on the way to help an older lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus in Titchmarsh. She told us that she had left the filling station and pulled up in a country road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel since I'd only just acquired it several days ago when my previous one, which I had had for about twenty years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Northamptonshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Drain Titchmarsh - Titchmarsh Wrong Fuel
I had a perfect evening fishing on my holiday and was feeling delighted the following morning as I headed out to help a new family holidaying in Titchmarsh. They'd conked out after inserting petrol into their Ford, and they were close to half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently in Northamptonshire and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, and yet he still got an earful by his wife. I felt sorry for the lad. In any case, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and thought about what my missus would say to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would never ever live it down!

Our Areas of Competency :
Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All over Northamptonshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.
So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.
If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations quite swiftly.
Be aware though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Northamptonshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.
Re-Fueling Support
Out of fuel in Titchmarsh (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the common problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Titchmarsh
Stories from our own Titchmarsh mechanics:
I am not necessarily so inclined to running on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I had only just come away from home after eating a magnificent roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was en route to help a guy because he put the incorrect petrol in his Vauxhall. He was somewhere in Titchmarsh thus I arrived on scene almost immediately. Just as I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on something else and did not perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought on some problems through running it?" I revealed generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also I'd personally drain the fuel at once for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and thus another contented client had the ability to continue his ride without the need for hassle. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this can make carrying out work on Sundays in Northamptonshire that little bit less painful for me personally!
Fuel Drain Titchmarsh - Titchmarsh Fuel Rescue
This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around 2:30 in the morning and noone was around. It was rather uneventful so far, and John and I were relaxing perusing several old magazines. That was an unusual peaceful time in Northamptonshire. It was in fact so tranquil that the moment the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The customer on the opposite end said: "I only just ended my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in the diesel Honda". We got him to let us know just where he was and we set off, reaching him in Titchmarsh no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for coming out so promptly. As we were going back to the office we found two women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their delight.
