It was before five pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting talking over the recent tennis, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Bishopston and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota lease car in error. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a secure spot and, as it was just a few miles off from us, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away contented and much less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Swansea well done in my books!

Our Areas of Experience :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Swansea we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not knowing the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And of course be careful not to turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol may cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases pretty simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Swansea for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Bishopston (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Swansea Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They will deal with any of the usual troubles which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Bishopston - Bishopston Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer had stopped off a street in Bishopston. His Volkswagen engine had ceased working and he'd no idea what was the problem till he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got very little sleep the night before and that must have been the reason why.
