Wrong fuel in your car in Tamworth? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this time of need and get you moving once more with our professional fuel drain services.

It was around 6 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting discussing the recent sports rankings, at the ready for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Tamworth and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda lease car by mistake. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things sadly can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was just a few miles from us, we were able to find the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and much less concerned. One more fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my books!

Services Our Company Offers:

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be dragged into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it immediately. And most certainly do not start the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations very quickly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Got a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Staffordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Tamworth (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They can also deal with the standard issues which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
