It was close to six pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated discussing the recent sports, prepared for the next job of the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Pontypool and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental by mistake. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could arrive at her right away. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Torfaen well done in my opinion!

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a mix of ionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue can be devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Torfaen to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a storage shed, providing we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Pontypool (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Torfaen Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill the car. They can also handle the most common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Pontypool - Pontypool Fuel Drain

A customer had broken down near a street in Pontypool. His Citroen car had stopped running and he had no clue what was the problem until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel car. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got no sleep the day before and that must have been why.
