It was close to 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting discussing the footy results, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Woodrow and filled petrol in a diesel Kia rental car in error. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could arrive at her quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off calm and a lot less worried. A job in Worcestershire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Worcestershire we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of motorists not knowing how to work with it (note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely do not start up the car - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel tank in the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Woodrow (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to fix any of the usual issues that could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Woodrow - Woodrow Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling on my afternoon off and felt contented with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a young family who were vacationing in Woodrow. They conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their Volkswagen, and the car was around an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation takes place all the time in Worcestershire and that it's really nothing at all to fret about, and yet he all the same got an earful. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted goodbye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same blunder... I would never ever live it down!
