It was close to six pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's tennis results, prepared for the next call for the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Penyffordd and filled petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental car in error. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, and that such things do happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe position and, as it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could reach the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Flintshire well done in my mind!

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, especially if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And certainly don't switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Flintshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Penyffordd (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Flintshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home.
