We explained to him it was not a worry and quickly had our specialist with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his vehicle.

It was close to 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's golf, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we received the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Birmingham and put petrol in her diesel Mazda rental in error. She was fairly irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we could reach her without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. A misfuel correction in West Midlands well done in my books!

Services We Deliver:
Below are the top services we give to our customers.
AdBlue Contamination
All around West Midlands we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will likely trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very quickly.
Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got a fuel container lying at the rear of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in West Midlands for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we can empty it.
Out of Fuel Assistance

We can get out to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your car. They can also handle any of the usual issues that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

A motorist who had unluckily put unleaded in his diesel Fiat contacted us for help at the Tesco filling station in Birmingham. He had decided to fill up before continuing on to the local holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel which probably wasn't a wonderful way to begin to our holiday." It was certainly no trouble by any means for our fuel drainer to go and perform the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday break.
Vehicle Misfuel Birmingham - Birmingham Vehicle Misfuel
A gentleman phoned us from Birmingham to state that he foolishly piped unleaded in his diesel Kia. "I can't believe it! How could I put petrol in my diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer approximately fifty minutes to completely drain the wrong fuel from the car. He carefully flushed the fuel system and put fresh diesel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to have the task properly performed.
