It was about 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Great Hinton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental car in error. The poor thing was rather agitated apparently, stating "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we could find the lady quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another job in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Below are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Wiltshire we have identified a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not knowing the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you get in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel will likely result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather simply.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container sitting in the back of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Wiltshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Great Hinton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will handle the normal issues that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Great Hinton - Great Hinton Fuel Rescue

A gentleman rang us from his residence on a street in Great Hinton. He said, "My car (a Fiat) is not running and is producing awful noises when I flip the key." He said that he put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, carried out the drain and filled it up again with clean Diesel. He said after that he would be sure to inform people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out promptly.
