It was around 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated there going over the football, waiting around for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Ludlow and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mitsubishi lease car by mistake. The poor thing was very agitated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Shropshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Shropshire we have discovered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this predicament do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can certainly bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations very simply.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Ludlow (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.

Fuel Drain Ludlow - Ludlow Fuel Rescue

I'd had a terrific evening golfing during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a young family on holiday in Ludlow. They'd broken down after adding diesel into their Hyundai, and were close to an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I heard to the lady telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing goes on frequently in Shropshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyhow, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good bye and considered what my missus would tell me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
