It was after seven pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there discussing the recent sports rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Upper Cotton and put petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental by mistake. She was fairly irritated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to get the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could go home to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise:

Listed here are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Staffordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Upper Cotton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They will take care of the normal troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
