It was close to 6 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting there commenting on the recent footy rankings, waiting for the 8th telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Warley Woods and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe area and, because it was only a few miles off from our van, we were able to find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in West Midlands done well in my books!

Services We Give:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

In West Midlands we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course do not switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations very simply.

You should know that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank in the rear of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in West Midlands for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Warley Woods (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the common troubles which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Warley Woods - Warley Woods Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer phoned us from his residence on a road in Warley Woods. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Honda) is not starting up and is making dreadful sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said after that he'd be certain to advise people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.
