It was around ten pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and me were seated there commenting on the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Wetwood and put petrol in a diesel MINI rental. She was rather troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we were able to find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less concerned. Another fuel drain in Staffordshire done well in my mind!

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In Staffordshire we have discovered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you end up in this predicament don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our engineers have got the practical skills and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances quite easily.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Staffordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Wetwood (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the normal troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Wetwood - Wetwood Wrong Fuel

A gentleman called us from Wetwood saying he had stupidly piped unleaded in to his diesel MG. "Unbelievable! How could I put petrol in my lovely diesel car!" It took our fuel drainer approximately 50 minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the car. He meticulously cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and then put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was thrilled and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to have the work professionally completed.
