It was before 10 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were seated there talking about the weekend's sports, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Chapel Green and filled petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental in error. She was pretty agitated it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off contented and less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Warwickshire done well in my books!

Below are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Warwickshire we have identified an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly ionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And most definitely do not crank the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In case you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel will likely result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Warwickshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, if we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Chapel Green (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete Warwickshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the normal troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Chapel Green - Chapel Green Wrong Fuel Doctor

A while back a young man contacted us after his MG ground to a halt on a road in Chapel Green. He had accidentally put petrol in the diesel car and was only able to drive so far as the road before being forced to give up. It was in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who lives locally, reached him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car. "Sincere kudos to you for your fast response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
