It was before six pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there discussing the football results, prepared for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Chipping Norton and put petrol in a diesel Lexus rental car by mistake. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this unfortunately can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we could find the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the hotel she was residing at.

Our Areas of Experience :

This is what we do best.

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - Your diesel engine filled up with petrol is more challenging than a petrol tank driven with diesel fuel. Engine may begin to chug and may stall. A lot of fumes could very well be noticed as well. But whatever it is, we're prepared to get you up and running.

Tank filled with water - Water can contaminate your engine and it should be taken out of the fuel system to prevent damages and rust in your engine. Once you accelerate hard your engine, it may begin to rev up and jolt. Contamination like this is not only common in boats. This can happen to the vehicle too because of the jerry cans that were previously utilized as a water container then later used as fuel container where water was not completely emptied.

AdBlue directly added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People commonly don?t have a concrete idea of what AdBlue is for. It?s not a fuel additive. It?s a liquid that helps reduce the bad effect on our environment by lessening the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not straight to the fuel tank. In the event you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing work.

Contaminating your tank with red diesel - Red diesel sometimes finds its way into fuel tanks by mistake. It can easily occur if you are distracted or exhausted, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. If it happens to you, we'll handle it fast and efficiently.

Old fuel unused for quite a while - Another service we readily offer is drainage of old fuel. People might think that fuel can't go bad, that once stored it can last for many years on end, but that just is not true. Fuel degrades with time. The more it has degraded the more damage it can probably cause on your engine. Don't be tricked if your vehicle runs fine on degraded fuel. It's a disaster waiting to take place. Our team can stop that problem.

Petrol in Diesel Chipping Norton - Chipping Norton Petrol in Diesel

I had a great day cycling on my day off and was feeling cheerful with myself the following working day as I set out to assist a new family holidaying in Chipping Norton. They'd pulled over after inserting petrol into their Renault, and they were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed as I heard to the lady telling off her husband for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this goes on quite frequently in Oxfordshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, but he all the same had an earful by his wife. Poor chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted good bye and considered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
