We're simply a telephone call away.

It was around seven pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the footy results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Farley and put petrol in her diesel Jaguar hire car in error. The poor thing was somewhat troubled apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe space and, because it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home satisfied and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my books!

Our service is entirely mobile and we have the ability to come out no matter exactly where you are and have the car drained, emptied and working just as before very quickly - and at a reasonable price!

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Wiltshire we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to start up the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel can easily contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations very quickly.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Wiltshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Farley (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to fill your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the most common troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
