It was before six pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated discussing the footy results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Chipping Norton and put petrol in a diesel Ford rental car by mistake. She was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a protected position and, since it was only a short distance away from our van, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and a lot less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Oxfordshire done well in my books!

Provided Services:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you should do in case you?ve poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And of course do not switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container in the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business premises in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Chipping Norton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the usual troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Chipping Norton - Chipping Norton Fuel Removal

I'd had a wonderful day cycling on my afternoon off and was feeling contented the following working day as I headed out to assist a new family away in Chipping Norton. They'd pulled over after putting petrol in their Citroen, and they were around half an hour away. I got there at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the wife telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this occurs continuously in Oxfordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what my wife would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
