It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the recent football rankings, ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Lockeridge Dene and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar rental car in error. The poor lady was fairly agitated apparently, stating "I can not believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and less anxious. Another fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my opinion!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Wiltshire we have found progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of the way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank is going to produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Wiltshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Lockeridge Dene (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will deal with the normal troubles which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lockeridge Dene - Lockeridge Dene Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman had stopped off a road in Lockeridge Dene. His Skoda engine had stopped functioning and he'd no idea what was faulty till he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the day before and that could have been precisely why.
