It was after seven pm on a Friday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting talking over the recent rugby results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Cross and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MINI rental. She was somewhat irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could get to her right away. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and much less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Shropshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to motorists not understanding how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And most certainly take care not to start the engine - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol may trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Shropshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Cross (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the typical issues that may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Cross - Cross Fuel Rescue

A person rang us from his home on a close in Cross. He said, "My vehicle (a MINI) is not running and is making awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would remedy the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to educate people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
