Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Hademore

Petrol in your diesel motor vehicle in Hademore? Welcome to WrongFuelSoS.com. Give us a call and find out how we can help to get you up and running once again.

It was about 7 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were resting there talking over the golf rankings, waiting for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Hademore and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel BMW lease car in error. The poor lady was rather agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected area and, because it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and a lot less concerned. Another fuel drain in Staffordshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Staffordshire we are encountering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call if you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel will often produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases quite expediently.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Hademore (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your automobile. They will fix any of the common problems which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.
