It was just before eight pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent footy rankings, prepared for the next job for the day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Shelfield and put petrol in her diesel Renault hire car. The poor lady was pretty agitated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to get the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and much less apprehensive. A fuel drain in West Midlands well done in my opinion!

Petrol in Diesel Shelfield - Shelfield Fuel Removal
A relatively alarmed motorist called us from the Esso filling station at West Midlands to advise us that he put unleaded in to his diesel Skoda; he wasn't quite sure how he'd managed to do it. We informed him it was absolutely no concern and soon enough had our fuel drainer with him to drain the contaminated fuel from his vehicle. Having extracted the contaminated fuel, he was subsequently back driving. He told us; "I am really surprised I put petrol in my diesel car. And the person who came out to carry out the fuel drain was incredibly fantastic - he did not make me look like a fool."

Here are the top services we offer to our clients.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In West Midlands we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the vehicle.
So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And most certainly be careful not to crank the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel may lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances very easily.
Remember though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your premises with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in West Midlands for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Shelfield (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full West Midlands Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will handle the standard problems that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Doctor Shelfield - Shelfield Wrong Fuel Doctor
A person contacted us from his home on a close in Shelfield. He said, "My car (a Peugeot) is not starting up and is making dreadful sounds when I turn the key." He confessed that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would fix the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.

Recent Fuel Drains in Shelfield
Some examples:
It's no fun being stuck in a vehicle filled with the wrong fuel on the street. Our last customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Hyundai) in Shelfield ran into literally that type of difficulty: "You may already know that I erroneously filled my petrol car with diesel a few days ago. I was so worried about my error that I was besides myself. But I shouldn't have concerned myself because you were fantastic in dealing with the problem."
Fuel Drain Shelfield - Shelfield Fuel Removal
A customer from Shelfield with a full car of kids in her diesel Mercedes had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that the car should be fine and that she would be in action soon. When we arrived she was visible distressed but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the children in the back."
