It was before 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ryan and I were resting there talking over the recent football, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Brynmawr and put petrol in a diesel Audi rental. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated it seemed, stating "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the car to a safe position and, because it was only a short distance off from our van, we could reach the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Although we got really soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. One more job in Blaenau Gwent well done in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is actually devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely don't turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Blaenau Gwent to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Fuel Drain Brynmawr - Brynmawr Wrong Fuel

The other day a man phoned us right after his Mitsubishi stopped working along a street in Brynmawr. He had by accident put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle and was only able to get as far as the road before being forced to stop. It was in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who stays locally, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the car. "Sincere thanks to you for your timely response, especially at 4 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
