Wrong fuel in your car in Duddlewick? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this time of need and get you going again with our professional fuel removal assistance.

It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were seated discussing the recent tennis, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Duddlewick and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She managed to move the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from us, we could find the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and less worried. One more job in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Shropshire we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely do not start up the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will often contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations pretty simply.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Shropshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Duddlewick (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Shropshire 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 perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car. They can also take care of the most common problems that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Duddlewick - Duddlewick Fuel Drain

A guy had broken down just near a road in Duddlewick. His Kia engine had ceased operating and he'd no idea what was the problem right up until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got absolutely no rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
