We're only a telephone call away.

It was just before 5 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting there talking about the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the 6th call to come in. In due time we had a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Balmer Heath and filled petrol in her diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was somewhat troubled apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from the office, we were able to find the woman right away. The bad fuel was extracted so she could go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive away contented and much less concerned. A fuel drain in Shropshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Shropshire we have discovered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not being totally sure how to work with it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

Well, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you find yourself in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our technicians have the specialised competence and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances rather easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container placed in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Shropshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Balmer Heath (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill your car. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Balmer Heath - Balmer Heath Fuel Rescue

I'd had a terrific evening fishing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the following morning as I set out to assist a young family vacationing in Balmer Heath. They'd conked out after putting diesel in their MG, and they were approximately an hour away. I arrived at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you even manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this situation takes place on a regular basis in Shropshire and that it's actually absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he in spite of everything had an earful. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and thought about what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
