It was before ten pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were sitting discussing the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Shaw and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo lease car. The poor thing was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to find the lady right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my books!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in the event that you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases very swiftly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Wiltshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Shaw (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your car. They are also able to handle any of the normal troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Shaw - Shaw Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a fantastic afternoon cycling on my off day and felt pleased the next day as I headed out to help a young family holidaying in Shaw. They'd stopped after putting diesel into their MINI, and were about half an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on continuously in Wiltshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, and yet he all the same had an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and considered what my wife would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
