It was just before five pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting there talking over the rugby results, waiting for the sixth call for the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Rugeley and put petrol in her diesel Lexus lease car. The unfortunate thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we could find the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got very drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Staffordshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Staffordshire we are encountering a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Whenever you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container lying at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises in Staffordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

We're able to come to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home.

Wrong Fuel in Car Rugeley - Rugeley Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a fantastic evening cycling during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following day as I headed out to assist a young family who were vacationing in Rugeley. They had pulled over after inserting petrol into their Smart, and they were close to an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I listened to the woman berating her man for actually being so silly. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place continuously in Staffordshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, however he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor chap. Anyhow, I drained the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would tell me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I would never ever live it down!
