It was before eight pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry day, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the rugby rankings, at the ready for the 8th job to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Hildersley and filled petrol in a diesel Smart rental car in error. She was quite distressed it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to find the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could go home to the motel she was living at. Although we got very wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and not so concerned.

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? It is actually devastating to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out immediately. And obviously take care not to turn over the motor - not even to move it to a parking spot. In case you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can easily result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container at the back of your garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Herefordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered 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 mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Hildersley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home.

They are also able to fix the usual issues that may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
