It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were seated discussing the recent rugby rankings, ready for the 8th call to arrive. In due time we had a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Brinsford and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda rental. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things can happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was only a few miles away from the office, we could get to the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Specialties:

Listed below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mixture of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you find you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And definitely do not crank the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations fairly quickly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your premises full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Staffordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Brinsford (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They can also handle any of the common troubles that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
