Wrong Fuel in Car Ringlestone - Ringlestone Fuel Removal
I had enjoyed a fantastic day golfing on the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I headed out to aid a new family on holiday in Ringlestone. They'd conked out after putting petrol into their Peugeot, and they were about an hour away. I turned up at their car and laughed as I listened to the girl telling off her husband for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem occurs on daily basis in Kent and that it is nothing at all to fret about, but he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. In any case, I drained all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I shouted good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never live it down!

Services Our Company Offers:
Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Kent we are discovering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the car.
Well, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it asap. And obviously don't start the car - not even to move it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will probably have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations pretty easily.
You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Have an old fuel container at the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Kent to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can drain it.
Re-Fueling Support
Run out of fuel in Ringlestone (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a complete Kent Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will take care of the common issues that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel Assist Ringlestone - Ringlestone Fuel Rescue
I had a great evening golfing on my day off and felt delighted the next morning as I headed out to assist a young couple who were away in Ringlestone. They pulled over after filling petrol into their Skoda, and were close to half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady telling off her hubby for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass constantly in Kent and that it's nothing at all to worry about, and yet he all the same got an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would say to me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

A few examples:
Just picture being stuck in a car contaminated with the incorrect fuel in the middle of the road. We had a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (MG) in Ringlestone suffered from exactly this type of trouble: "You probably know that I wrongly put the wrong fuel in my car recently. I was so distressed about the wrong fuel in my car that I was actually in tears. However I shouldn't have concerned myself seeing as you were exceptional in resolving my problem."
Wrong Fuel Ringlestone - Ringlestone Wrong Fuel Doctor
A woman from Ringlestone with a full car of little ones in her diesel Hyundai had filled her vehicle with £50 of petrol at the Sainsburys petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and genuinely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We told her that everything should be okay and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she noticed that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the youngsters on board."
