Wrong Fuel Foxwood - Foxwood Petrol in Diesel
Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to assist an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel Fiat in Foxwood. I had been told she had left the filling station and broken down along a rural road en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I reached the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she told me, "I am getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I had only just got it a short while back after my former car, which I'd used for in excess of twenty years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Shropshire woman!

Services We Offer:
These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:
AdBlue Contamination
In Shropshire we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And of course take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel can produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases fairly quickly.
Be aware though that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.
Run Out of Fuel Services
Run out of fuel in Foxwood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the standard issues that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
