It was close to ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's rugby results, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Loggerheads and put petrol in a diesel MINI lease car by mistake. The poor thing was very distressed apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from where we were, we were able to get to the woman almost instantly.

Our Areas of Expertise :

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we are encountering an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we can get to it, we can drain it for you.
