Put unleadede in a diesel car in Edington? We're sorry to learn about that, but we're here to assist. WrongFuelSoS.com has comprehensive nationwide assistance for incorrect fuel drain. And furthermore we are on-call 24 hours a day. Residence, roadside or petrol station forecourt services wherever in Edington and the UK, and any time of day.

It was after five pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting there talking about the weekend's golf results, prepared for the seventh call of the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Edington and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could reach her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and much less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Services We Provide:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Wiltshire we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at once. And most definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If perhaps you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances very easily.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Wiltshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Edington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your car. They will take care of the normal troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
