It was just after 9 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and I were sitting there going over the rugby, prepared for the sixth job of the day to come in. Finally we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Weoley Hill and filled petrol in her diesel Mazda hire car in error. She was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the woman right away. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home satisfied and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Birmingham done well in my opinion!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Birmingham we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained right away. And of course do not start the motor - not even to move it from the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may very likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank placed in the rear of your premises with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in Birmingham to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a storage shed, providing we can reach it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Weoley Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Birmingham Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your vehicle. They can also fix the common issues which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
