It was just after 9 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's sports rankings, waiting for the seventh job of the day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Foxham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes hire car. The poor lady was somewhat affected it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure spot and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from us, we could find the woman quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Although we got really soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and much less concerned. Yet another job in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:
Below are the top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Wiltshire we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being totally sure the way to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.
So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
Call us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to take care of different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations pretty expediently.
Remember however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Disposal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel tank laying at the back of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and business properties in Wiltshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Recent Fuel Drains in Foxham
Tales from our own Foxham personnel:
No one likes being stuck in a vehicle filled with the improper fuel on the street. One of our most recent customers who filled her diesel car with petrol (Ford) in Foxham had literally that type of headache: "WrongFuelSOS.com's engineer helped me to move my vehicle from the live lane. He had it drained and had it working again after only a half-hour. Highly recommended."
Wrong Fuel Foxham - Foxham Wrong Fuel Drain
This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3am and almost noone was about. It was pretty dead so far, and Ray and I were loafing around reading a few old articles. That was a rare quiet moment in Wiltshire. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The voice on the other end stated: "I've only just ended my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel Toyota in error". I told him to tell us where exactly he was situated and we left, arriving in Foxham less than 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he thanked us for arriving so fast. While we were heading back to the office we spotted two young ladies on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.
