It was around 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were relaxing there talking over the recent football results, ready for the next fuel drain to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Eaton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet lease car in error. The poor lady was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could get to the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could go home to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Oxfordshire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can solve any associated problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in case you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It can be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And certainly never start up the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container in the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Oxfordshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We're able to get out to fill up the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the usual issues which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Eaton - Eaton Wrong Fuel Drain

A man rang us from his residence on a close in Eaton. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mazda) is not running and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would remedy the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to advise people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
