It was before 8 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were seated there commenting on the sports results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Wigborough and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Hyundai hire car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could reach the woman swiftly.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Fuel Drain Wigborough - Wigborough Petrol in Diesel

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Monday and we were on the way to help an elder lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT in Wigborough. I had been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a rural road on the way to see her godchildren. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was working she said to me, "Now I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel since I had only just bought it a couple of days back when my old car, which I'd owned for about twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a pleasant Somerset woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Wigborough - Wigborough Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman had stopped near a street in Wigborough. His Jaguar engine had ceased operating and he'd no clue what was the problem until eventually he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got absolutely no sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason why.

Services Our Company Offers:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

In Somerset we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container placed at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Wigborough (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home.

They can also deal with the most common troubles which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Wigborough

A number of the more common facts we see from many of our engineers in Wigborough:

Now I am not ever too inclined to doing work Sundays, and last week was the same. I had only just departed home following a superb dinner cooked by the better half, and I was on my way to help a gentleman because he filled the incorrect fuel in his SEAT. He was stationed in Wigborough thus it wasn't long before I reached him. As I drove up right behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my thoughts on other considerations and failed to realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought on any kind of harm by driving it?" I determined that there should not be harm and that also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and one more contented customer was able to continue his journey without fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Somerset just that little bit less painful in my opinion!

Fuel Drain Wigborough - Wigborough Wrong Fuel Drain

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had become rather quiet so far, and me and Paul were sitting about looking at some old newspapers. It was an uncommon tranquil hour in Somerset. It was in fact so quiet that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The motorist told me: "I have completed my overnight shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel Vauxhall". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was and we left, ending up in Wigborough not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for showing up so promptly. As we were going back to the depot we found two women at the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a puncture. Obviously we pulled over to change it, to their elation.
