It was after 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were resting there commenting on the rugby rankings, ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Throckmorton and put petrol in a diesel Toyota rental. She was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I can not believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we could get to the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away contented and less stressed. One more job in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Worcestershire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to motorists not understanding the right way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the car.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can potentially produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the back of the garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Worcestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Throckmorton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car or truck. They can also handle any of the usual issues that may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Throckmorton - Throckmorton Vehicle Misfuel

I had a perfect day fishing during my off day and was feeling cheerful the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Throckmorton. They'd pulled over after putting petrol into their Audi, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you actually manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing goes on continuously in Worcestershire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, even so he still had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyways, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove off I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
