It was close to seven pm on a Monday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking about the golf, ready for the 6th call for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Axford and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia rental car in error. She was rather distressed it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected space and, as it was only a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home contented and not so anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here are the top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we are discovering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely never switch on the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Wiltshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.

We will help to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home.

Wrong Fuel in Car Axford - Axford Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer had stopped just off a street in Axford. His Renault engine had ceased operating and he had no idea what was wrong until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got zero rest the night before and that must have been precisely why.
