It was just before five pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were seated talking over the recent sports results, at the ready for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Dudley and filled petrol in her diesel Nissan hire car in error. She was quite agitated apparently, saying "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from us, we were able to arrive at the lady quickly.

Services Our Company Offers:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Midlands we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly never switch on the motor - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations fairly simply.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying at the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in West Midlands to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Dudley (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Dudley - Dudley Fuel Drain

Yesterday a motorist phoned us soon after his Nissan died along a street in Dudley. He had unintentionally put unleaded in the diesel motor and had managed to drive as far as the street before needing to give up. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our technician, who resides nearby, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back in to the vehicle. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
