A guy stopped on a street in Welshpool had to have a fuel drain around a few weeks ago. His Honda was stopped roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was relaxed when he called us but a little worried to move his car from the road as he was causing some congestion. We arrived in fifteen minutes since our drainer was in neighbouring Welshpool and had just concluded his previous job.

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Powys we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And obviously never crank the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may well produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of your garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Powys to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a garage, provided that we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Welshpool (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Powys Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill the car. They will be able to take care of the usual problems which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again in the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 5 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
