It was just before 5 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting there talking over the footy, at the ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a young lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Cotonwood and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental car in error. She was pretty agitated apparently, stating "I just can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could reach her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and much less anxious. Another job in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it in case you have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue can be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

In case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Cotonwood (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will be able to handle any of the typical issues that may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Cotonwood - Cotonwood Fuel Removal

A customer had broken down just off a street in Cotonwood. His Smart engine had ceased running and he'd no idea what was faulty right up until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the night before and that must have been the reason why.
