It was before seven pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting there discussing the weekend's golf results, waiting for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Tunstall and put petrol in her diesel Peugeot lease car. She was very agitated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from our van, we could get to the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and less stressed. A misfuel correction in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

Services Our Company Offers:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Staffordshire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly a result of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (remember: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can easily cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir at the back of your premises with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Tunstall (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car. They will be able to take care of the usual problems that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
