It was just before 5 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking about the recent footy rankings, prepared for the next fuel drain that day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Southam and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi lease car by mistake. The poor lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, since it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to get to the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off calm and less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Warwickshire well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Expertise :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is composed of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue can be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly do not start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel may well bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Warwickshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Southam (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Warwickshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the standard problems that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Southam - Southam Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a fantastic evening golfing on my day off and felt pleased with myself the following day as I set out to assist a young couple on holiday in Southam. They had broken down after inserting diesel into their Porsche, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman telling off her partner for being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this problem happens quite frequently in Warwickshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, but he yet still had an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. In any case, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
