We're only a telephone call away.

It was around six pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there discussing the recent rugby results, at the ready for the seventh call to come in. Before long we got a call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Middleton Stoney and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Honda rental car. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a protected space and, because it was only a few miles away from the office, we could arrive at the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Oxfordshire done well in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly thanks to people being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to move it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can easily cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises with old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties 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. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, as long as we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Middleton Stoney (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to fix any of the common troubles which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Middleton Stoney - Middleton Stoney Fuel Rescue

A gentleman called us from Middleton Stoney to state that he had foolishly piped unleaded in to his diesel Hyundai. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our fuel drainer roughly 50 minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel out of the car. He carefully purged the fuel system and then put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it hadn't cost him dealer prices to get the job properly performed.
