Wrong Fuel Assist Old Coulsdon - Old Coulsdon Petrol in Diesel

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to assist an old lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot in Old Coulsdon. I'd been advised she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a country lane along the way to see her godchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing the work she explained, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel because I'd only acquired it several days back right after my former car, which I had had for about twenty years, inevitably broke down". I completed the job and she gave me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely Bexley woman!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Bexley we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start up the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases very simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in Bexley for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a shed, if we can access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Old Coulsdon (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Bexley Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the standard problems which may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Old Coulsdon

Tales from our own Old Coulsdon technicians:

We recently got a phone call about a guy who put the incorrect fuel in his Dacia in Old Coulsdon. He had conked out on the street. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't discover the dilemma till we conked out. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it working . I was amazed due to both how swift you were and your rates". Of course we got there promptly and purged the engine after flushing all the unleaded from the diesel tank. The customer was over the moon by the time we were done and he went off completely satisfied.

A man who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel Lexus phoned us for help at the Murco filling station in Old Coulsdon. He had decided to fill up before proceeding on to the nearby caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great way to begin to our vacation." It was no trouble whatsoever for our fuel drainer to go and carry out the fuel drain. We hope they enjoyed their holiday.

A gentleman phoned us from Old Coulsdon to say he foolishly piped petrol in to his diesel Hyundai. "I can't believe it! How could I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It took the fuel drainer approximately 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel out of the car. He completely cleaned the fuel system and after that put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was thrilled and it didn't cost him dealership prices to get the job properly performed.
