It was just after 9 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting discussing the recent footy rankings, at the ready for the 8th job for the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Handsworth and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi lease car. She was very distressed it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the motel she was living at.

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Midlands we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And of course never turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you would very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations fairly swiftly.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container placed in the back of your premises containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in West Midlands to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Handsworth (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with any of the common issues which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
