It was about 10 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting talking over the football, ready for the next fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we received the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Orslow and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat lease car by mistake. She was rather irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and not so concerned. Yet another job in Staffordshire well done in my opinion!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Staffordshire we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from motorists not knowing the way to use it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the rear of your premises full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Orslow (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the common troubles that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

A customer had broken down off a road in Orslow. His Honda car had stopped running and he had no idea what was awry until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle.
