In due time we had the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Lifford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!"

Offered Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Birmingham we are encountering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Contact us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant condition to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel may produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container in the back of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Birmingham for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Lifford (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Birmingham Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle the typical problems which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

She contacted us weeping and genuinely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle . We told her that the car would be alright and that she would be back in action very quickly.
