It was about six pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting talking about the weekend's golf results, waiting for the sixth job for the day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Ashwood and put petrol in her diesel Fiat rental car in error. She was fairly affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this do happen. She was able to move the car to a protected position and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home contented and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Staffordshire done well in my mind!

Provided Services:

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? It can be devastating to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it right away. And certainly be careful not to start the motor - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Ashwood - Ashwood Fuel Drain

I had a perfect afternoon hiking on my holiday and felt contented the following morning as I set off to help a young couple on holiday in Ashwood. They stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their Mitsubishi, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the girl berating her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this occurs all the time in Staffordshire and that it's really nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted good-bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
