It was close to 9 pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were sitting talking over the footy rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Barton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Dacia lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was just a few miles from the office, we could reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and less concerned. A fuel drain in Warwickshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Warwickshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it to a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will often cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances very expediently.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Warwickshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Barton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Warwickshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your car. They can also fix any of the standard troubles that might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Barton - Barton Fuel Rescue

I'd had a perfect afternoon cycling on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to help a young couple who were on holiday in Barton. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their Nissan, and they were about an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling her husband off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you even manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this occurs constantly in Warwickshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an earful by his missus. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I waved good bye and wondered what my missus would tell me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
