It was just before eight pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were resting there going over the recent tennis, waiting around for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Haslucks Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia hire car in error. She was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a safe spot and, because it was just a short distance off from where we were, we could find her without delay. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to return to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. A fuel drain in West Midlands done well in my opinion!

Listed here are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do if you have put Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in the fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And definitely be careful not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel may produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in West Midlands to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a garage, as long as we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Haslucks Green (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full West Midlands Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the usual issues that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Haslucks Green - Haslucks Green Fuel Removal

I'd had a fantastic evening fishing during my off day and was feeling delighted the next working day as I set out to assist a young couple vacationing in Haslucks Green. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their SEAT, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I got there at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling off her man for turning out to be so confused. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass constantly in West Midlands and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he yet still had an earful. Poor boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved farewell and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!
