Services We Offer:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected issues.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Midlands we are finding progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it right away. And definitely do not switch on the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol can bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances rather quickly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in West Midlands to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Handsworth Wood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive West Midlands Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill the car. They can also take care of any of the common problems which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Handsworth Wood

Several examples:

Now I'm certainly not overly keen on carrying out work on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just come away from the family after having a wonderful dinner cooked by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a guy because he filled the wrong petrol in his Nissan. He was situated in Handsworth Wood and so it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. As I pulled up at the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank the Lord! I had my concentration on stuff and didn't ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted any kind of problems as a result of starting it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be problems and also that I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel right away. As expected I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and thus another contented motorist was able to carry on with their ride without the need for fuss. He could not stop thanking me, and this can make operating on weekends in West Midlands a little bit easier in my opinion!

Fuel Removal Handsworth Wood - Handsworth Wood Wrong Fuel Drain

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly 2am and almost noone was stirring. It had been fairly quiet up to now, and Paul and I were relaxing browsing a couple of old articles. It was an unusual tranquil time in West Midlands. Actually it was in fact so calm that when my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The voice explained: "I've ended my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the Toyota in error". We got him to let us know where exactly the car was and we hit the road, ending up in Handsworth Wood not as much as half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thanks for coming out so rapidly. As we were heading back home we saw two girls at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. As a result we pulled over to change it, to their elation.
