Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Little Wolford

Petrol in your diesel car in Little Wolford? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this emergency and get you driving again with our expert fuel drain services.

It was before 10 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's tennis, prepared for the 8th call to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Little Wolford and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental car. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, since it was only a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and not so stressed. Another job in Warwickshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to proceed in the event that you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It can be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly be careful not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations rather easily.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Warwickshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Little Wolford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Warwickshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the standard issues that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
