It was around 8 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's football, at the ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco petrol garage in Linley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Citroen hire car by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from us, we could get to the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home calm and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Shropshire done well in my books!

Our Services:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

Wrong Fuel in the Tank - Diesel engine must be filled with diesel fuel and nothing else to avoid engine problem.

Your engine might start coughing, you might experience stalling, you may see smoke, and you could have troubles starting the vehicle. If the situation is reverse where diesel is pumped on the petrol engine, the symptoms are still similar. Whichever of the two types of fuels, we can get it fixed for you.

Water contamination of your engine - This can rev up your engine and make it thrust or stutter when you accelerate. And even worse, it results in early rusting of your fuel system. This happens quite a lot with the boats. It's because people usually make use of water cans to fuel the boats without draining them properly. The only solution is to drain clean your fuel tank. That's exactly what we can do for you and can even provide replacement filters.

AdBlue directly added to your tank - Mistakenly adding AdBlue to your tank can contaminate your fuel system. People usually don?t have a concrete idea of what AdBlue is for. It?s not a fuel additive. It?s a liquid that helps reduce the bad effect on our environment by reducing the emissions in the car?s exhaust. It should be added via a separate tank, not immediately to the fuel tank. If you fall victim to this contamination, let?s us do the flushing work.

Red Diesel Contamination - Generally this takes place due to accident. It can easily occur if you are distracted or tired, from a filling pump or jerry can, and it's no surprise when the AA says as many as 1500 UK garages sell red diesel. Simply contact us straight away and we'll help you get rid of red diesel in your tank.

Driving with Old Fuel - As time passes by and your car is idle for some time, the quality of your fuel degrades. This happens if the car is not driven and has been on standby for a long period of time and the fuel has been in the tank unused. The engine may start and run but there will be irregularities you'll notice. This is a service that we can give to you. We'll empty the old fuel and refueled it with brand new ones.

Wrong Fuel Drain Linley - Linley Fuel Drain

I appreciated a fantastic day fishing during the weekend and felt delighted the next morning as I headed out to help a young family who were vacationing in Linley. They had conked out after putting diesel into their Smart, and they were around half an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed as I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing takes place regularly in Shropshire and that it is nothing to get worried about, and yet he in spite of everything got an earful. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted so long and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
