Wrong Fuel Drain Reading - Reading Wrong Fuel Drain

Just had a good night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a rainy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to help an elder lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes in Reading. I had been informed she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and broken down on a backwater road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel as I had only just got it a short while ago after my old one, which I'd used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I completed the job and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Berkshire lady!

We deal with your car accompanied by our comprehensive licencing and insurance protection. We know how to cope with any vehicle styles regardless of whether they have been started on contaminated fuel or just misfueled.

Our Areas of Specialties: Services Our Company Offers:

Below are our top services we give to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be injected into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations pretty easily.

Remember however that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Berkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Reading (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They will fix the normal issues which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Reading - Reading Fuel Rescue

A couple of days ago a customer called us right after his BMW broke down in the middle of a road in Reading.

We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back into the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."

Testimonies from our Reading team:

Now I am not necessarily too enthusiastic about running Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had only just come away from home after a tasty Sunday roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to sort out a gentleman after he filled the incorrect petrol in his Vauxhall. He was somewhere in Reading and so I arrived on scene rapidly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my attention on stuff and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created any damage through running it?" I stated that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and also I would personally drain the fuel as soon as possible. Needless to say I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and yet another content customer could continue on their journey without hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and that helps make working on weekends in Berkshire that little bit less painful in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel Reading - Reading Wrong Fuel Assist

A gentleman called us from his Volkswagen where he had ground to a halt on the hectic road. "I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car and I shortly learned all about it a couple of miles down the road!" Fortunately we were in a position to get out to him in a reasonably quick time, considering the congestion, and he was soon back behind the wheel.

Fuel Drain Reading - Reading Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer called us from his place on a street in Reading. He explained, "My car (a MG) is not starting up and is creating awful noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then reckoned he would solve the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with clean Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
