It was just before 7 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and I were relaxing talking about the recent footy results, ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Pershore and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche rental in error. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a protected space and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more job in Worcestershire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Worcestershire we have identified increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of people not understanding how to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the car.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And definitely take care not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking bay. In cases where you did start the car you will most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will often produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Worcestershire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Pershore (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Worcestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the usual troubles that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Pershore - Pershore Wrong Fuel Doctor

A gentleman had broken down near a road in Pershore. His Audi car had ceased running and he'd no idea what was the problem till he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had got very little rest the night before and that must have been the reason.
