It was about 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were resting there talking over the recent sports results, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in West Challow and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot lease car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, saying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected space and, because it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and much less apprehensive. Yet another job in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

We can help you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in the event that you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel tank? It can be harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pushed into the fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not start the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your premises with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Oxfordshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in West Challow (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will be able to handle the common issues that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain West Challow - West Challow Wrong Fuel Drain

A customer called us from his residence on a close in West Challow. He explained, "My vehicle (a Vauxhall) is not starting and is producing awful noises when I turn the key."

We showed up promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He said after that he would be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
