It was before ten pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and me were sitting talking about the footy results, ready for the seventh job to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Tilley Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes lease car by mistake. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, also that these things happen.

Our Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And most certainly don't start the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will likely result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances rather simply.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Shropshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.
