It was about 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the weekend's footy results, ready for the 8th call for the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Stretton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Land Rover rental car by mistake. She was fairly troubled it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to reach her swiftly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home calm and much less concerned. One more fuel drain in Staffordshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Offer:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a mix of high-purity urea and ionized water (67.5%).It is actually devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, bringing about devastating and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

Give us a call if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations very expediently.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial properties in Staffordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, if we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Stretton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill the car. They can also take care of any of the typical problems which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Stretton - Stretton Petrol in Diesel

I had a fantastic evening golfing on my off day and felt contented with myself the next working day as I headed out to assist a young family who were on vacation in Stretton. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Porsche, and were close to an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman telling her husband off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass everyday in Staffordshire and that it's truly nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he all the same had an earful by his wife. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted so long and thought about what my missus would ask me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I'd never live it down!
