It was about ten pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Dan and I were seated commenting on the weekend's rugby results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Middleton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel baby blue Fiat 500 hire car. She was rather distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this do happen. She was able to get the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could return to the motel she was residing at. Although we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and less apprehensive. A job in Warwickshire done well in my mind!

Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations very simply.
Be aware that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.
Wrong Fuel in Car in B78 Postcode - Middleton Misfueling
What a good night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an elder lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel buff Toyota Yaris in Middleton. I had been advised she had left the filling station and was broken down along a rural road along the way to visit her family. I got the location punched in the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I reached the location and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I had only just bought it a week ago when my other car, which I had used for more than thirty years, inevitably died". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Warwickshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Middleton
I am not ever that hot for running on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd only just departed the family after having a wonderful dinner prepared for me by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a man who filled the incorrect petrol in his work's Peugeot 2008. He was somewhere in Middleton so it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I drove up behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise God! I stupidly had my attention on other stuff and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I caused any harm because of starting it?" I stated truth be told there probably should not be any kind of harm and also I'd personally get the fuel drained at once. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and then one more contented client had the ability to continue their trip without bother. The guy couldn't stop thanking me, and this is what can make operating on weekends in Warwickshire just that small bit easier in my opinion!
