Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Kings End

If you've put petrol in your diesel car in Kings End (wrong fuel Kings End) we are the company you need to phone. We assist the entirety of the Kings End area and all adjoining locations.

It was about five pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were seated discussing the weekend's tennis results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Kings End and put petrol in her diesel Jaguar rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather agitated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we could get to the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was living at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and a lot less stressed. One more fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

Listed here are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Worcestershire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly swiftly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Kings End (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill the car. They will take care of any of the usual problems which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
