It was about eight pm on a Tuesday and although we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there talking about the footy rankings, waiting for the seventh call that day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Meadowtown and put the wrong fuel in her diesel MG rental car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away relaxed and not so anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competency :

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Shropshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially caused by people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can correct all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Meadowtown (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) and refill the car. They will take care of any of the usual problems that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Meadowtown - Meadowtown Wrong Fuel

I had a wonderful evening hiking on my day off and was feeling satisfied with myself the following day as I was en route to aid a new couple who were away in Meadowtown. They'd stopped after putting diesel in their MG, and were about an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smiled while I listened to the wife telling off her husband for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this situation occurs all the time in Shropshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still got his ear bent by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. As they drove away I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what my missus would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
