A guy broken down on a road in Oldfield required a fuel drain roughly a few weeks back. His MINI was stuck on the side of the road after he had misfueled.

Our Areas of Competency :

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Worcestershire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly do not turn over the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can potentially produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container placed in the back of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in Worcestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Oldfield (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Oldfield - Oldfield Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a wonderful evening hiking on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the next working day as I was en route to aid a new family on holiday in Oldfield. They'd stopped after filling petrol into their BMW, and the car was about half an hour away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this problem takes place on a regular basis in Worcestershire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he still had his ear bent. Poor lad. In any case, I drained all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted good-bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd personally never ever live it down!
