It was before 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and me were resting commenting on the weekend's sports results, waiting for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Inkford and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda rental in error. The unfortunate lady was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things regrettably can happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and a lot less worried. A misfuel correction in Worcestershire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

In Worcestershire we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not knowing how to use it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And of course do not turn over the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is likely to bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container sitting at the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of taking away 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. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a shed, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Inkford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your automobile. They can also take care of the normal issues which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
