It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting discussing the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Parton and put petrol in a diesel Kia lease car by mistake. The poor lady was rather irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to get the car into a secure spot and, since it was only a short distance off from us, we could find the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and not so worried.

Our Areas of Specialties:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Herefordshire we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially thanks to motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And most certainly be careful not to start the motor - not even to move it into a parking area. In case you have started the car you may almost certainly have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is going to trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances fairly simply.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container lying in the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Herefordshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Parton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill your automobile. They will take care of the most common issues which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A man had broken down just off a road in Parton. His Fiat engine had ceased operating and he had no idea what was wrong till he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had got zero sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
