It was after 8 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing commenting on the rugby results, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Burton Dassett and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes rental by mistake. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to find the customer almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and less concerned. One more job in Warwickshire well done in my mind!

Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do in case you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made of a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It tends to be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, bringing about devastating and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously never start the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases rather quickly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of the garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Warwickshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Burton Dassett (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Warwickshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill the car. They will be able to deal with the usual problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

It was actually in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who resides close by, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your fast response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
