It was just after 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were relaxing there talking over the footy, waiting around for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Perry Common and filled petrol in a diesel Ford lease car in error. She was fairly troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less concerned. Another misfuel correction in West Midlands well done in my books!

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Midlands we are discovering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And certainly do not start the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel may well cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases very simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of the garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in West Midlands to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, if we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Perry Common (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will handle the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Perry Common - Perry Common Wrong Fuel

A man rang us from his place on a close in Perry Common. He said, "My car (a Hyundai) is not starting and is making very bad sounds when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
