It was just before 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there talking about the golf, prepared for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we got a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Billesley and filled petrol in a diesel Peugeot lease car by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to get to the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in West Midlands well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Midlands we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not understanding how to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the car.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container placed in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in West Midlands for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Billesley (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will deal with any of the typical issues that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Billesley - Billesley Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a fantastic day hiking on the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I was en route to aid a new couple on vacation in Billesley. They had broken down after adding petrol into their Jaguar, and they were about an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman berating her husband for being so stupid. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass frequently in West Midlands and that it's actually nothing at all to stress about, even so he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. Poor boy. Anyway, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!
