It was just after five pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting there commenting on the recent tennis, at the ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Upper Gambolds and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Jaguar hire car. The poor thing was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could find her right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Worcestershire well done in my opinion!

Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Worcestershire we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the back of your premises full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Worcestershire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Upper Gambolds (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up the car. They can also take care of the usual problems which might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
