It was just after 7 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Dan and me were sitting talking over the football rankings, at the ready for the seventh job of the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Ogmore Vale and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia rental. The unfortunate lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, since it was just a short distance away from our van, we were able to reach the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and much less concerned. A misfuel correction in Bridgend well done in my books!

Services Our Company Offers:

Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made of a mix of high-purity deionized water and urea (32.5%).Adblue is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container lying at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Bridgend for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Ogmore Vale (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Bridgend Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will take care of any of the normal troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Ogmore Vale - Ogmore Vale Petrol in Diesel

A man called us from his home on a street in Ogmore Vale. He said, "My car (a Vauxhall) is not starting and is generating dreadful noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said he would be certain to advise people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
