It was about seven pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were relaxing talking about the rugby, ready for the 6th call for the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Potters Green and filled petrol in her diesel SEAT rental in error. The poor lady was rather irritated apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to her right away.

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around West Midlands we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather expediently.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private 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 remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Potters Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They will be able to handle the normal problems that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
