It was just before five pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the weekend's sports results, ready for the sixth call to come in. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Craven Arms and put petrol in a diesel Volkswagen hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from our van, we could find the woman right away. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and much less concerned. One more job in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

What to do if you may have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the diesel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to start the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the rear of your premises containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Shropshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Craven Arms (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They are also able to fix the usual problems that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Craven Arms - Craven Arms Fuel Drain

A gentleman had broken down just near a street in Craven Arms. His Volvo car had stopped running and he'd no clue what was the problem right up until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the evening before and that must have been precisely why.
