It was close to 5 pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Short Heath and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda hire car by mistake. She was fairly troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was only a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could go home to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home satisfied and a lot less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Birmingham done well in my books!

Our Fields of Expertise: Services We Offer:
Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.
AdBlue Contamination
All around Birmingham we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the car.
So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And of course never start the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations quite expediently.
Be aware that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
