It was close to 8 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were sitting going over the weekend's sports, prepared for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Ludlow and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart lease car by mistake. She was fairly irritated it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She was able to get the car to a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and a lot less anxious. A misfuel correction in Shropshire well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can fix any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call if it turns out you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
