It was just after seven pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and I were resting there discussing the recent football rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Acton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat lease car by mistake. The poor lady was very affected it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from us, we were able to get to the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and less concerned. A job in Worcestershire well done in my opinion!

Our assistance is entirely mobile and we have the ability to come out regardless of wherever you are and have the vehicle drained, cleansed and running just as before right away - and for a cost-effective price!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Worcestershire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the car.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol may cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations quite easily.

Take note that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Acton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car. They can also fix any of the standard issues that might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Acton - Acton Wrong Fuel Assist

A customer had stopped off a street in Acton. His Skoda engine had stopped running and he had no idea what was wrong until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got virtually no rest the day before and that must have been the reason why.
