Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of people not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And of course never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you may likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Shropshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Ludlow (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill the car. They will fix any of the standard troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Ludlow - Ludlow Fuel Rescue

I enjoyed a terrific evening hiking on my holiday and was feeling contented the following morning as I set off to assist a young family who were vacationing in Ludlow. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Volvo, and the car was approximately an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I listened to the girl berating her man for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this situation occurs constantly in Shropshire and that it's nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I would never live it down!
