It was just after 8 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were sitting commenting on the footy results, ready for the next job for the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Chelmick and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus lease car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, and that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe spot and, since it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. One more job in Shropshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Shropshire we are noticing an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And certainly do not start the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations rather quickly.

Take note that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Shropshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Chelmick (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill up your car. They will be able to fix any of the usual issues which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Chelmick - Chelmick Vehicle Misfuel

A gentleman had conked out off a street in Chelmick. His Honda car had stopped working and he'd no idea what was faulty till he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got very little rest the night before and that must have been the reason why.
