Wrong Fuel Drain Ballymena - Ballymena Wrong Fuel Drain

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Saturday and I was off to help an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel Dacia in Ballymena. She informed us that she had left the filling station and pulled up in a rural road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I turned up at the car and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only acquired it a week back when my other one, which I owned for over twenty years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a delightful County Antrim woman!

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout County Antrim we are noticing a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can easily bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank placed at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in County Antrim to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Ballymena (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full County Antrim Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will fix the typical problems that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Ballymena

Stories from our Ballymena personnel:

I'm not actually very interested in doing work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just left the family following a tasty dinner cooked for us by the missus, and I was en route to help a gentleman after he had filled the incorrect fuel in his Volkswagen. He was somewhere in Ballymena thus it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on other stuff and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought about any harm because of running it?" I revealed generally there probably should not be any damage and that also I would personally remove the wrong fuel immediately for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and then one more delighted customer could continue his travelling without any fuss. He could hardly stop thanking me, and that can make earning a living on Sundays in County Antrim a tiny bit better to me!

He claimed that he had got virtually no sleep the evening before and that must have been the reason.
