A customer conked out on a street in Arlescote had to have a fuel drain about a month back. His sombre grey Honda Civic Si was stuck roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but slightly concerned to get his car out of the road since he was generating some traffic. We got to him in a quarter-hour since our drainer was in in close proximity of Arlescote and had just done a fuel drain. He said, "I just don't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and stopped ! My vehicle was not running well I basically had to stop and subsequently it just conked."

Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel tank laying at the back of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Warwickshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.
Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it for you.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases fairly quickly.
Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Arlescote - Wrong Fuel in Car Arlescote
I had enjoyed a great evening fishing during my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next morning as I set out to help a new couple who were away in Arlescote. They'd conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their clean white BMW 530, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and laughed while I listened to the woman berating her partner for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing happens frequently in Warwickshire and that it is nothing at all to be concerned about, but he yet still got an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I'd never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Arlescote
I am not necessarily too interested in doing the job on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had just departed the family following a lovely dinner made for me by the wife, and I was on my way to sort out a gentleman after he put the wrong fuel in his winter grey BMW Z4 M Roadster. He was located in Arlescote thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and didn't realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I caused any kind of problems through starting it?" I stated that generally there should not be any kind of damage and that also I would get the fuel drained as quickly as possible. As expected I drained the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and so one more delighted customer had the ability to continue on his ride without any subsequent fuss. The man did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what makes operating on weekends in Warwickshire just a tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
- Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
