It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were seated there going over the recent golf results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Cellarhead and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche lease car. She was pretty affected apparently, stating "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She managed to get the car into a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes from the office, we could get to the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and much less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

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

AdBlue Contamination

In Staffordshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of motorists not understanding the way to work with it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And definitely take care not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking area. If you have started the car you would most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel is going to result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations pretty simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir in the back of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Staffordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Cellarhead (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the common troubles which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Cellarhead - Cellarhead Wrong Fuel Doctor

A guy had stopped off a road in Cellarhead. His Peugeot motor had stopped running and he had no idea what was awry till he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the night before and that must have been the reason why.
