It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were seated there commenting on the golf rankings, waiting for the next telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Newtown and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen rental car. The poor thing was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this can happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure space and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we could find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. A job in Shropshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Provide:

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

Wrong Fuel in your Tank - A diesel engine filled up with petrol is more troublesome compared to a petrol tank filled with diesel. Engine may begin to cough and may stall. A lot of smoke can be discovered as well. But no matter what it is, we're prepared to get you going again.

Water unintentionally added in the tank - If your tank is contaminated with water, it is essential that water needs to be flushed out. Otherwise, your engine may start to rev up, splutter or jolt when you push the accelerator. This does not include your engine starting to build rust. An incident like this does not happen to boats only; this can happen to your car too. It must be drained out of the fuel system. Luckily we're experts on this kind of job.

AdBlue immediately added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People typically 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 damaging effect on our environment simply by reducing the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not directly to the fuel tank. In the event you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing work.

Red diesel contamination of your engine - There are over 1500 garages marketing red diesel in the UK. So you shouldn't be surprised by the fact that red diesel can end up in your fuel tank. It might happen mistakenly while filling from a pump or a jerry can if you're distracted. If that's what you are worried about, we can get it right quite quickly.

Old fuel unused for quite a while - Another service we readily provide is drainage of old fuel. People might believe that fuel can't go bad, that once stored it can last a long time on end, but that simply isn't true. Fuel degrades with time. The more it has degraded the more damage it can possibly cause on your engine. Do not be tricked if your vehicle runs fine on degraded fuel. It's a disaster waiting to happen. Our team can stop that problem.

Petrol in Diesel Newtown - Newtown Wrong Fuel

I'd had a perfect day cycling on the weekend and felt pleased the next working day as I set out to help a young family who were on holiday in Newtown. They'd pulled over after putting petrol into their Ford, and the car was close to an hour away. I showed up at their location and smirked while I heard to the lady berating her partner for actually being so silly. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this occurs all the time in Shropshire and that it's nothing to stress about, nevertheless he still got his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyway, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
