It was around 10 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's footy results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we got a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Woolhope Cockshoot and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from the office, we were able to get to her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. A misfuel correction in Herefordshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you?ve poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is composed of a blend of urea (32.5%) and ionized water.It can be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be dragged into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive problems to your car's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Herefordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Woolhope Cockshoot (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will be able to fix any of the most common problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Woolhope Cockshoot - Woolhope Cockshoot Wrong Fuel

A week ago a young man called us just after his Hyundai died on a street in Woolhope Cockshoot. He had mistakenly put unleaded in his diesel car and was only able to drive so far as the street before having to stop. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who resides nearby, arrived with him in approximately 10 minutes. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel back into the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, especially at 3 a.m., I really appreciate it."
