It was just before seven pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not ceased pouring! James and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's football results, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Goosemoor Green and filled petrol in a diesel Jaguar lease car in error. She was very agitated apparently, telling me "I can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to return to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and much less anxious. One more job in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

Our Services:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Staffordshire we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely do not turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases rather easily.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Goosemoor Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They will be able to fix any of the normal troubles which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Goosemoor Green - Goosemoor Green Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman had broken down just near a street in Goosemoor Green. His Honda motor had stopped running and he had no idea what was faulty until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got absolutely no sleep the night before and that could have been precisely why.
