Wrong Fuel Drain Kniveton - Kniveton Wrong Fuel

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and we were off to assist an old lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volvo in Kniveton. I had been told she had left the petrol station and was pulled up on a backwater road on the way to visit her family. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she told me, "I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I had just purchased it a week back because my previous car, which I had for about thirty years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Derbyshire woman!

Our Services:

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Derbyshire we are noticing a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the automobile.

So, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to crank the engine - not even to shift it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Kniveton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and refill your automobile. They can also handle any of the usual troubles which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Kniveton - Kniveton Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a great afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling delighted the next morning as I headed out to assist a young couple away in Kniveton. They'd broken down after filling diesel in their Lexus, and the car was close to half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their position and laughed as I listened to the gal telling her hubby off for being so silly. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass on a regular basis in Derbyshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, even so he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Poor lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I would personally never hear the end of it!

We have fuel drain specialists on duty in the area completely ready and waiting to come out and fuel drain your motor vehicle of the wrong fuel or polluted fuel. We work 24/7 every day of the year. Every one of our technicians are thoroughly trained and knowledgeable in dealing with all models of vehicles.

Vehicle Misfuel Kniveton - Kniveton Fuel Drain

I appreciated a great evening fishing during my off day and was feeling pleased the following day as I headed out to aid a young family who were on holiday in Kniveton. They broken down after inserting diesel into their Peugeot, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl chastising her spouse for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass quite frequently in Derbyshire and that it is nothing to get worried about, even so he all the same had an ear bashing. Poor guy. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved good bye and wondered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
