It was just before five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's football, prepared for the 8th call that day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Calne and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could find the woman right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Petrol in Diesel Calne - Calne Wrong Fuel Doctor

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a gloomy Wednesday and we were en route to assist an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Mercedes in Calne. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I have been getting somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only got it a couple of days ago when my former one, which I'd used for more than 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Wiltshire woman!

Our Areas of Experience :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Wiltshire we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to motorists being unsure of how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us if you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank will likely produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases very swiftly.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir in the back of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Wiltshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Calne (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Wiltshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They can also take care of the normal troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Doctor Calne - Calne Wrong Fuel in Car

I enjoyed a terrific day cycling on the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set off to help a young family vacationing in Calne. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their Nissan, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I listened to the wife telling off her hubby for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this goes on constantly in Wiltshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, but he in spite of everything got an earful by his wife. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove off I shouted good-bye and considered what my missus would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Calne

Down below are reviews and good examples of fuel drains we have done in Calne:

We a few weeks ago got a call about a driver who put the incorrect fuel in his BMW in Calne. He had conked out on the street. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem up until I stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and had it working again. I was impressed as a result of both your speed and your charges". As you can imagine we got there rapidly and flushed the engine after draining all the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The client was over the moon by the time we finished and he drove off happy.

Wrong Fuel Calne - Calne Wrong Fuel in Car

A motorist who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel Audi phoned us for a fuel drain at the Esso filling station in Calne. He decided to fill up before continuing on to the nearby caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol instead of diesel which probably wasn't a wonderful beginning to our holiday." It was really no trouble by any means for our engineer to go along and do the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday.
