It was around five pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were resting there talking over the sports results, waiting around for the next call for the day to arrive. In due time we had the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Leafield and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda hire car in error. She was rather affected apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to move the car into a protected spot and, seeing that it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and not so stressed. One more misfuel correction in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties:

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Oxfordshire we are discovering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can potentially lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Oxfordshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Leafield (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your automobile. They can also handle the usual issues that could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Leafield - Leafield Wrong Fuel in Car

A man had broken down near a street in Leafield. His BMW car had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was faulty until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten absolutely no rest the evening before and that must have been precisely why.
