It was close to seven pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting there discussing the weekend's rugby, waiting for the 6th call that day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Fairford and put petrol in a diesel Peugeot hire car in error. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course do not start the car - not even to move it into a parking area. If you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases quite easily.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we can reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and industrial properties in Gloucestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered 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 even a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Fairford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill your car. They will take care of any of the common issues which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Fairford - Fairford Fuel Rescue

I had a fantastic afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple away in Fairford. They had stopped after filling diesel in their Chevrolet, and were about an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing to stress about, even so he all the same got his ear bent. Poor lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I mouthed good-bye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I would never live it down!
