It was around ten pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were seated talking about the recent footy rankings, waiting for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Hanford and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault hire car in error. The poor thing was very affected it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away calm and much less worried. One more job in Staffordshire done well in my books!

Wrong Fuel Hanford - Hanford Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a motorist phoned us because his BMW broke down on a road in Hanford. He had by accident put petrol in his diesel motor and had managed to get so far as the road before having to halt. It was actually early in the morning and our engineer, who stays locally, arrived with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in to the vehicle. "Sincere kudos to you for your prompt response, particularly at 4 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Staffordshire we are noticing a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you will likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases fairly easily.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank in the back of the garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Staffordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in a garage, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Hanford (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your vehicle. They can also take care of the standard problems that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Hanford

Several examples:

A teen who had recently got his licence had misfueled his MINI by getting petrol in the diesel at the station near Hanford. He said, "This is only the third time I have put fuel in my vehicle from the time when I paid for it and I do not know how to proceed." He was also anxious because his dad had just paid for the car. He came across our company on the net and so called it instantly, scared about what he ought to do. Our man on the telephones explained to him that we could be on scene in forty five minutes and to not do anything to the car while waiting. We did the fuel drain on his vehicle and he stated how amazed he was that it was taken care of so quickly and without any problem whatsoever.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hanford - Hanford Petrol in Diesel

A gentleman who had unfortunately put the wrong fuel in his diesel Fiat phoned us for a fuel drain at the Esso filling station in Hanford. He thought it would be good to top up before going on to the nearby recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel and it wasn't a good way to begin to our getaway." It was certainly no problem in the least for our engineer to go out and perform the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday break.
