Petrol in your diesel car in Pensax? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this situatiuon and get you running once more with our professional fuel drain services.

It was after 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and me were relaxing there talking about the recent golf rankings, prepared for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we had the call from a girl on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in Pensax and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel MG rental car. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, stating "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was no more than a few miles from us, we could arrive at her quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and less anxious. One more job in Worcestershire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Diesel

In Worcestershire we have noticed a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially due to people not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely never switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to address in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying at the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Worcestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Pensax (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and fill the car. They can also take care of any of the common troubles that could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Pensax - Pensax Wrong Fuel

Last friday a motorist telephoned us because his Renault broke down along a street in Pensax. He had by accident put unleaded in the diesel car and got so far as the street before needing to give up. It was still early in the morning and our technician, who lives close by, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Genuine thanks to you for your prompt response, particularly at 4 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
