If you've put the wrong fuel in your car in Hope (incorrect fuel Hope) we are the individuals you need to get in touch with. We operate throughout the whole of the Hope region and all bordering regions.

It was after five pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's football, waiting for the sixth job to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Hope and filled petrol in her diesel Fiat hire car in error. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things sadly often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the customer quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home satisfied and much less anxious. Yet another job in Shropshire well done in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Shropshire we have encountered more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Should you get in this position don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the technical competence and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel is likely to trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations rather easily.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Shropshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Hope (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will handle the usual problems that can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hope - Hope Wrong Fuel

A man rang us from his place on a street in Hope. He said, "My vehicle (a Vauxhall) is not starting and is creating awful sounds when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the issue by putting more Diesel on top. We got there promptly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He said he would be sure to explain to people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
