It was just before seven pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were seated talking about the recent rugby, waiting for the 8th call for the day to come in. Finally we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Tipton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes lease car. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a secure space and, because it was only a few miles off from where we were, we could get to the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and less concerned. Another fuel drain in West Midlands done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over West Midlands we are discovering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel may well produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in West Midlands for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Tipton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive West Midlands Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They will be able to take care of the normal issues which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Tipton - Tipton Vehicle Misfuel

A guy had stopped just off a street in Tipton. His Ford engine had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he explained to us: "I can't believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got absolutely no rest the day before and that could have been why.
