It was about 7 pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and me were resting there talking about the rugby, at the ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Selly Park and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MINI rental. The unfortunate thing was pretty troubled apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things sadly happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach her right away. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. A job in Birmingham well done in my books!

Our Services:

Do you or your employees often misfuel your car? We can solve any associated problems.

AdBlue Contamination

In Birmingham we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations rather simply.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Birmingham to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, providing we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Selly Park (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Birmingham Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with any of the most common problems that may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Selly Park - Selly Park Fuel Removal

A week ago a man contacted us soon after his MG ground to a halt in the middle of a road in Selly Park. He had by accident put unleaded in the diesel car and drove so far as the street before being forced to give up. It was really early in the morning and our technician, who lives not far away, arrived with him in approximately 20 minutes. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
