It was close to 8 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the 6th telephone call to come in. Before long we got the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Kenley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen hire car. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to reach her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. Another job in Shropshire done well in my mind!

We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Shropshire we have encountered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are going through AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will likely cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations quite swiftly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Shropshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced 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 a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Kenley (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your car. They can also deal with the most common issues which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Kenley - Kenley Fuel Rescue

A man had broken down just off a road in Kenley. His Jaguar engine had ceased working and he'd no idea what was faulty until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got very little rest the evening before and that could have been the reason why.
