Wrong Fuel Assist Longford - Longford Fuel Drain

What a quality night of sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Tuesday and we were on the way to assist an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel Dacia in Longford. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car taking diesel seeing that I'd only just acquired it several days back after my former one, which I had used for in excess of twenty years, finally died on me". I got the drain done and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Derbyshire lady!

Our Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Derbyshire we have encountered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank is likely to trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container sitting in the back of your garden containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Derbyshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Longford (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill the car. They can also handle any of the typical issues which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Drain Longford - Longford Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a great afternoon fishing on the weekend and felt satisfied the next working day as I set out to help a young couple holidaying in Longford. They had pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their Mercedes, and the car was around an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal chastising her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this situation comes to pass all the time in Derbyshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, and yet he still got his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyway, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved farewell and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!


Recent Fuel Drains in Longford

Several stories:

We recently received a phone call from a man who had put the incorrect fuel in his Mercedes in Longford. He had ground to a halt on the street. "I was pleased at how rapid you were in having somebody out to assist me when I foolishly put the wrong fuel in my. Thank you ever so much". Obviously we appeared promptly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. On arrival the technician said the driver was scowling, but was pleased when we finished.

A driver who had put the wrong fuel in his diesel Hyundai called us for a fuel drain at the petrol station in Longford. He had decided to top up before going on to the local recreation park . "I put unleaded rather than diesel which unfortunately wasn't a smart start to our getaway." It was no challenge at all for our technician to go out and do the fuel drain. We hope everyone had a good holiday break.

Wrong Fuel in Car Longford - Longford Wrong Fuel Assist

I enjoyed a terrific evening fishing on my off day and felt satisfied the next morning as I set out to aid a young couple holidaying in Longford. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Mazda, and they were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed as I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you actually find a way to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on quite frequently in Derbyshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he all the same got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I made the same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
