A customer conked out on a road in Barton needed a fuel drain close to a few weeks ago. His clean white Mitsubishi Challenger was stuck on the side of the road after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but slightly worried to move his car out of the road because he was causing some congestion. We arrived in 15 minutes since our drainer was in nearby Barton and had just completed a fuel drain. He said, "I simply don't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and broke down ! My vehicle was not running well I simply needed to stop and subsequently it just cut out."

AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Lancashire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not being totally sure the right way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?
Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters. If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.
In the event that you get in this position do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the practical knowledge and experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Barton
I'm not too enthusiastic about working Sundays, and last week was no different. I had just come away from the wife and kids after a magnificent lunch made for us by the missus, and I was off to deal with a man who filled the wrong fuel in his old Kia Spectra. He was only in Barton so it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Thank God! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and failed to realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought on any damage through starting it?" I explained truth be told there shouldn't be problems and that also I would personally drain the wrong fuel right away for him. Naturally I removed the fuel from the car and put in some correct fuel, and yet another content client had the ability to continue his ride with no hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on Sundays in Lancashire that little bit easier for me!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Barton - Fuel Rescue Barton
This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was around. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and me and Ray were loafing reading a couple of old articles. This was an unusual quiet moment in Lancashire. Actually it was indeed that calm that the moment the telephone inevitably rang I jumped! The person on the opposite end said: "I just ended my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in a diesel buff Volkswagen Jetta III in error". We asked him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we set off, arriving in Barton not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the car. He thanked us profusely for getting there so fast. While we were returning home we found two young women at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.
