It was before 7 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting there talking over the recent footy results, at the ready for the 6th call for the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Troedyrhiw and put petrol in her diesel BMW rental car. She was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the motel she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home contented and less anxious. A fuel drain in Merthyr Tydfil done well in my opinion!

Listed below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Merthyr Tydfil we have found progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people not understanding the right way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And of course never start the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can certainly bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Merthyr Tydfil to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Troedyrhiw (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Merthyr Tydfil Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to fill the car. They will fix any of the usual troubles which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Troedyrhiw - Troedyrhiw Fuel Rescue

Last friday a young man telephoned us because his Mercedes ground to a halt in the middle of a street in Troedyrhiw. He had mistakenly put the wrong fuel in his diesel motor and drove so far as the road before needing to give up. It was yet early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides close by, was with him in approximately 10 minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back in the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I really appreciate it."
