Our engineer was called to a petrol station in Wymondham when a elderly lady misfueled her Fiat by putting petrol in her diesel car. She was in an upset and perplexed frame of mind but we quickly eased her anxiety by letting her know that we could be with her vehicle within the hour to perform the fuel-drain and that the car would shortly be operational and she would be off again. As we had stated she was just that, but not before telling us: "Your company is very service oriented, I'm very pleased that my car is fine," and that she'd highly recommend us to anyone.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Leicestershire we have found increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part stemming from drivers not understanding the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely take care not to turn over the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. If perhaps you did start the car you would most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases rather simply.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container in the back of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Wymondham (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) and refill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the standard problems which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Wymondham - Wymondham Petrol in Diesel

A man had conked out near a street in Wymondham. His Chevrolet engine had stopped running and he had no idea what was awry till he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got very little sleep the day before and that must have been the reason.
