It was close to six pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's golf rankings, prepared for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Callander and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot rental car in error. She was quite affected apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, because it was only a few minutes off from the office, we were able to find the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so stressed. Another job in Stirling well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do if you have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Should you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the technical skills and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and business properties in Stirling for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Callander (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Stirling Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to handle the standard issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Callander - Callander Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman called us from his place on a road in Callander. He said, "My vehicle (a Porsche) is not running and is creating very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up again with fresh Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained promptly.
