If you've put the wrong fuel in your car wherever in Eastwood we'll be delighted to come out and do a complete fuel drain. Unleaded in diesel in Eastwood need not be a huge crisis. We're just a call away.

It was just after ten pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and I were seated there commenting on the recent football rankings, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received the call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Eastwood and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi hire car in error. She was very agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things often happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, as it was no more than a short distance away from us, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do in case you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially any time you started the car with Adblue in your tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at once. And most definitely never crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can easily produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Herefordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Eastwood (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill the car. They will deal with the usual problems that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
