It was just before 10 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were seated talking over the recent sports, prepared for the 6th job of the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Ranton Green and put petrol in her diesel Mercedes rental car. She was pretty affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to move the car to a protected spot and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and much less worried. One more job in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Staffordshire we have seen increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it right away. And obviously be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases rather swiftly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Ranton Green (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your car. They will be able to fix the common troubles that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Ranton Green - Ranton Green Wrong Fuel Drain

A week ago a driver phoned us after his Audi died on a road in Ranton Green. He had mistakenly put the wrong fuel in his diesel motor and was only able to drive so far as the street before having to stop. It was still in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who lives nearby, got to him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Genuine thanks to you for your timely response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
