Fuel Removal Compton - Compton Vehicle Misfuel

The driver of a BMW was sorry that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the road and it coughed and ceased. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel vehicle," is what he told us the first time he called. In truth, when he first called us he said he'd shop around, but he called us back before long because our pricing and arrival times were the most appropriate. Naturally, our engineer had him back performing his deliveries within the time we had quoted.

All of our technicians are trained on the most up-to-date cars and trucks and their fuel systems. We go to over 4,000 wrong fuel removals annually in the UK (yes, there are that many people who also make the mistake - you aren't on your own).

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Staffordshire we are discovering an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not understanding how to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it immediately. And certainly be careful not to switch on the car - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Staffordshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a shed, as long as we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Compton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car. They can also deal with the common troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Compton

Several reviews:

We completed a wrong fuel removal job outside a spectacular residential home in Compton recently. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to more or less reach home when my car stopped." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and completed a full fuel drain and purge on the Land Rover .

Wrong Fuel Assist Compton - Compton Vehicle Misfuel

A lady from Compton with a full car of youngsters in her diesel BMW had put £20 of petrol at the BP filling station. She phoned us weeping and extremely worried as she had never wrong fuelled previously and did not know what might happen to her car because of it. We told her that everything should be alright and that she would be up and running soon. When we got there she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined. She soon cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the kids in the back."

Fuel Removal Compton - Compton Wrong Fuel Drain

I appreciated a fantastic afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the following morning as I headed out to help a young couple on vacation in Compton. They pulled over after filling diesel in their Chevrolet, and the car was about half an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the lady telling off her spouse for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing goes on regularly in Staffordshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, and yet he yet still got an earful. Poor lad. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted so long and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the same thing... I'd never live it down!
