Wrong Fuel in Car Holmes, Lancashire
Wrong Fuel in Car Holmes - Holmes Fuel Drain
Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a warm Wednesday and we were on the way to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel Hyundai in Holmes. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and broken down in a rural lane on the way to see her family. I punched her location in the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she told me, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only got it a short while back because my previous car, which I had had for about 30 years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain done and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. What a precious Lancashire woman!

It was around 7 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting talking about the tennis rankings, waiting around for the 6th job that day to come in. Before long we got the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Holmes and filled petrol in a diesel BMW rental by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the car to a safe position and, because it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and not so apprehensive. Another job in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

Helping you get back on the road is our main goal.
AdBlue In your Fuel
What to do in case you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? It can be harmful to your car's fuel system, particularly if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.
In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to start up the engine - not even to shift it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel may produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.
Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
Waste Fuel Management
Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Lancashire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.
Out of Fuel Assistance
Run out of fuel in Holmes (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up the car. They will be able to take care of any of the usual troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
