Wrong Fuel in Car Ingham, Norfolk
Wrong Fuel Ingham - Ingham Wrong Fuel Drain
A lady had stopped on a street, Ingham having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was sobbing and fairly distressed as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we made an effort to calm her as best we could, encouraging her that everything would be fine. When we reached her she was no longer aggrieved and was quite fascinated in observing our technician carry out the fuel drain on her Volkswagen. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is akin to my baby, I just paid for it and it truly freaked me out that I had put a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm very pleased that it was very easily fixable."

It was about six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Mark and me were seated there commenting on the recent golf results, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Ingham and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected area and, because it was only a few miles away from where we were, we could reach the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Norfolk done well in my opinion!

We can help you with all these mis-fuel problems.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Norfolk we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers being unsure of how to use it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And most certainly never switch on the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.
Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Out of fuel in Ingham (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They can also handle any of the most common troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
Wrong Fuel in Car Ingham - Ingham Petrol in Diesel
A man phoned us from his home on a road in Ingham. He explained, "My vehicle (a Mercedes) is not running and is creating terrible noises when I turn the key." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up again with untainted Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.
Regardless if you happen to be driving a brand spanking new car or an old style, we have the hardware as well as practical knowledge to fix the issue right there. We take out all the incorrect fuel, deal with any issues created as a result of the misfueling, and get you running.
Recent Fuel Drains in Ingham
Reports from our own Ingham employees:
We not too long ago received a call about a driver who had put the incorrect fuel in his Kia in Ingham. He had broken down on the street. "I couldn't believe how fast you were in having a technician out to help me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thanks". Of course we arrived punctually and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The client was smiling again by the time we finished and he went off completely happy.
Petrol in Diesel Ingham - Ingham Fuel Rescue
A young lady employed in Ingham contacted us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel Vauxhall and, like many before her, imagined that she would be able to basically top up the vehicle with diesel and it would be okay. The engine was coughing and then it died when she reached the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it repaired within 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came out later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very happy you sorted my vehicle."
Fuel Drain Ingham - Ingham Vehicle Misfuel
A while back a customer called us right after his Jaguar stopped working on a street in Ingham. He had accidentally put unleaded in the diesel car and got as far as the street before having to stop. It was yet in the early hours of the day and our technical engineer, who lives not far away, reached him in less than 20 minutes. We were able to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again in the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 4 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
