It was just after five pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased pouring! Brian and me were resting there talking about the recent footy results, waiting around for the 6th call that day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Eastcott and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda lease car in error. The poor lady was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, also that these things do happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from us, we could get to the customer right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off contented and less concerned. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

So, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And obviously don't crank the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. If you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank in the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Eastcott (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to deal with the usual issues that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Eastcott - Eastcott Wrong Fuel Doctor

A motorist had stopped just near a street in Eastcott. His Smart engine had ceased functioning and he'd no clue what was faulty till he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. 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 put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that could have been the key reason why.
