Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Birch Acre

If you've put petrol in your diesel car in Birch Acre (petrol in diesel Birch Acre) we are the individuals you need to phone. We cater to the whole of the Birch Acre region and all nearby towns.

It was about seven pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the weekend's footy results, ready for the 6th call that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Birch Acre and put petrol in a diesel Suzuki rental by mistake. The poor lady was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

Services We Give:

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in the event that you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? Adblue is actually disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, causing devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out asap. And obviously do not start the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel will cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel tank placed at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Worcestershire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Birch Acre (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up the car. They can also take care of any of the standard problems which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Birch Acre - Birch Acre Wrong Fuel

A man rang us from his house on a street in Birch Acre. He explained, "My car (a Peugeot) is not starting and is producing dreadful noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would fix the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He told us that he would be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it drained immediately.
