It was around seven pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there going over the recent golf results, waiting around for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Cherington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things sadly happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from the office, we could reach the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was removed so she could get back to the hotel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and much less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Warwickshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Warwickshire we are finding more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by people not being aware of the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking place. If you have started the car you may likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Warwickshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Cherington (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Warwickshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They can also fix any of the standard issues which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Cherington - Cherington Wrong Fuel Assist

A gentleman contacted us from his home on a close in Cherington. He explained, "My car (a Lexus) is not starting and is making awful noises when I flip the key." He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He told us he would be certain to advise people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
