Wrong Fuel Hickling - Hickling Fuel Rescue

A rather concerned driver called us from the Texaco filling station at Nottinghamshire to advise us that he had put unleaded in his diesel Vauxhall; he wasn't entirely certain how he'd done it. We said to him it was no worry and rapidly had our engineer out to him to clear the wrong fuel from his tank. Having removed the contaminated fuel, he was soon back driving. He told us; "I am genuinely shocked I put petrol in my diesel car. And the person who arrived to do the fuel drain was genuinely fantastic - he did not make me appear ridiculous."

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Nottinghamshire we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely take care not to turn over the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel may well result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases quite simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business properties in Nottinghamshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Hickling (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They will take care of the most common issues which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Fuel Drain Hickling - Hickling Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a fantastic day hiking during my holiday and felt contented with myself the next day as I set out to aid a young couple who were holidaying in Hickling. They had conked out after filling diesel into their Suzuki, and were around half an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her husband off for being so foolish. "How could you conceivably manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place everyday in Nottinghamshire and that it's really nothing to fret about, nevertheless he all the same got his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and pondered on what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Hickling

Customary wrong fuel drain stories in Hickling:

We did a wrong fuel retrieval job on the drive of a beautiful residential home in Hickling not so long ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to very nearly arrive at home when my car cut out." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was pretty late at night, and carried out a fuel drain and cleanse on the SEAT to everyone's satisfaction.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hickling - Hickling Petrol in Diesel

This was the night shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was stirring. It had become rather quiet so far, and me and John were loafing about reading a number of old newspapers. This was an uncommon restful hour in Nottinghamshire. It was indeed so calm that when the phone ultimately rang I leaped! The customer on the other end explained: "I've just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured petrol in the MG by mistake". I told him to inform us just where he was located and we headed out, ending up in Hickling under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for arriving so fast. While we were going back to the depot we found two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we got out to change it, much to their elation.

Fuel Drain Hickling - Hickling Wrong Fuel Assist

Last week a driver telephoned us right after his Volvo stopped in the middle of a road in Hickling. He had by accident put petrol in his diesel car and was only able to drive to the road before being forced to pull up. It was yet early in the day and our technician, who lives nearby, got to him in less than twenty minutes. We managed to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again in the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your prompt response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I really appreciate it."
