It was close to 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ryan and I were resting there discussing the recent tennis results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Taynton and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall lease car. The poor lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things sadly happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing that it was only a short distance from our van, we could get to the customer quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and less apprehensive.

Our Areas of Experience :

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Oxfordshire we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you end up in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the specialised knowledge and working experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol will result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business properties in Oxfordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Taynton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the typical problems which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
