It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's sports results, ready for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Shotatton and put petrol in her diesel Toyota lease car by mistake. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She was able to get the car into a protected spot and, because it was just a few miles away from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and not so anxious. A job in Shropshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution made out of a mix of deionized water (67.5%) and urea.It is actually damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, resulting in catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. In case you have started the car you may likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Shropshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Shotatton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They can also take care of any of the common troubles that might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Shotatton - Shotatton Wrong Fuel Doctor

We showed up quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he would be sure to educate people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
