It was about 8 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! James and I were resting there discussing the recent sports results, at the ready for the seventh job that day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Shifnal and put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi lease car. She was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from the office, we could reach the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off relaxed and less anxious. Another job in Shropshire well done in my books!

Services We Offer:

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

What to do in case you may have put Adblue in a Diesel tank? Adblue is actually disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be pulled into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it asap. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, quite possibly broken 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 handle both situations very expediently.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Shropshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Shifnal (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They can also handle the typical troubles that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
