It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were sitting there commenting on the recent footy, at the ready for the next call that day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Ruckhall and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo lease car by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

Vehicle Misfuel Ruckhall - Ruckhall Fuel Rescue

The driver of a Volvo was sorry that he put unleaded in his diesel car when he got as far as the street and it coughed and stopped.

In all honesty, when he first contacted us he said he'd check around, but he phoned us back soon enough because our pricing and call-out times were the best. Needless to say, our technician had him again performing his deliveries well within the time we'd quoted.

Our Fields of Specialties:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Herefordshire we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out asap. And most certainly never turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations very expediently.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Herefordshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Ruckhall (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the typical troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Ruckhall

Some of the more routine stories we see from the specialists in Ruckhall:

We completed a wrong fuel removal exercise outside a spectacular house in Ruckhall a few weeks ago. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and was able to almost arrive at home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, even though it was pretty late at night, and carried out a fuel drain and purge on the Renault to everyone's satisfaction.

Wrong Fuel Ruckhall - Ruckhall Wrong Fuel

A gentleman who had unluckily put the wrong fuel in his diesel Nissan phoned us for a fuel drain at the Shell petrol station in Ruckhall. He decided to fill up before going on to the local holiday park . "I put petrol as opposed to diesel and it wasn't a smart beginning to our vacation." It was certainly no challenge at all for our technician to go and carry out the fuel drain. We hope they enjoyed their holiday.
