It was just before ten pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were sitting there talking over the recent tennis, waiting for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Marsh End and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Worcestershire well done in my opinion!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Worcestershire we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And obviously don't turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases quite expediently.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying at the rear of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Worcestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Marsh End (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to refill your automobile. They will fix any of the most common troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Marsh End - Marsh End Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a great afternoon hiking during my day off and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I set off to help a new family who were on vacation in Marsh End. They'd pulled over after filling diesel in their Suzuki, and the car was about half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smirked while I listened to the girl telling off her man for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this occurs constantly in Worcestershire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to fret about, nonetheless he all the same had his ear bent. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed farewell and pondered on what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
