It was close to five pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's footy results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Sytch Ho Green and filled petrol in a diesel MG lease car in error. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another job in Shropshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Shropshire we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And of course don't start up the engine - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Shropshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Sytch Ho Green (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) and fill the car. They will deal with any of the usual troubles which could go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Sytch Ho Green - Sytch Ho Green Vehicle Misfuel

I had a fantastic day cycling during my off day and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set off to aid a young family who were holidaying in Sytch Ho Green. They had broken down after inserting petrol into their Peugeot, and were roughly an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed as I heard to the wife telling her man off for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass regularly in Shropshire and that it's absolutely nothing to stress about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove away I shouted bon voyage and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
