Wrong Fuel in Car Tanworth-in-Arden, Warwickshire

Our Areas of Competency :

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Warwickshire we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't start the engine - not even to move it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the car you would likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may well result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Remember that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel in Car Tanworth-in-Arden - Tanworth-in-Arden Wrong Fuel Assist

I had a great day cycling during my afternoon off and was feeling contented the following morning as I was en route to assist a new family vacationing in Tanworth-in-Arden. They conked out after adding diesel into their Audi, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smirked while I listened to the gal telling her partner off for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs quite frequently in Warwickshire and that it's actually nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he all the same got his ear bent. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved farewell and thought about what her indoors would tell me if I did the same thing... I would personally never ever live it down!

Recent Fuel Drains in Tanworth-in-Arden

Very common fuel drain tales in Tanworth-in-Arden:

I'm not actually too hot for working weekends, and the other day was the same. I'd only just come away from home after a magnificent Sunday roast prepared by the wife, and I was en route to assist a man after he put the wrong petrol in his Volkswagen. He was only in Tanworth-in-Arden and so it wasn't long before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my attention on other stuff and did not realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I caused some damage because of driving it?" I determined that generally there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained as soon as possible for him. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the correct fuel, and thus yet another delighted client was able to carry on with their journey without any subsequent hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Warwickshire a little bit easier for me personally!

Petrol in Diesel Tanworth-in-Arden - Tanworth-in-Arden Vehicle Misfuel

A customer from Tanworth-in-Arden with her children in her diesel Land Rover had put £45 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She contacted us weeping and extremely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that all would be alright and that she would be back on the road soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children in the back."
