It was before eight pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated there talking about the recent footy, ready for the next job of the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Featherstone and put petrol in her diesel Smart lease car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat distressed it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to find her quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and less worried. One more fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties: Services Our Company Offers:

Here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made out of a mix of deionized water and urea.It tends to be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And most definitely do not start up the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In case you did start the car you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases quite simply.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Featherstone (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also take care of the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
