It was around five pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Ray and me were relaxing there going over the recent golf results, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Wells Green and filled petrol in her diesel Dacia hire car in error. The poor lady was quite agitated it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure position and, as it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in.

Our Areas of Competence :

Helping you get back on the road is our number 1 goal.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Birmingham we have found an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it at once. And certainly do not start the car - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may well produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

Remember that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Birmingham to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a storage shed, if we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Wells Green (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Birmingham Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the usual problems which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.
