Wrong Fuel in Car Dayhouse Bank, Worcestershire

Our Areas of Expertise:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Worcestershire we have seen more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to people not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at once. And of course never switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. In case you did start the car you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases very easily.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container sitting in the back of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

We will come to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

They are also able to handle any of the usual issues that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Dayhouse Bank - Dayhouse Bank Wrong Fuel Drain

I'd had a perfect day cycling during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to aid a young family who were holidaying in Dayhouse Bank. They'd conked out after putting petrol into their Chevrolet, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her man for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation goes on regularly in Worcestershire and that it's truly nothing to worry about, nonetheless he yet still got an earful. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed so long and thought about what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Fuel Removal Dayhouse Bank - Dayhouse Bank Wrong Fuel in Car

This really was what we call the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite uneventful thus far, and me and Paul were relaxing reading a number of old articles. That was a rare calm hour in Worcestershire. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the moment my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the phone explained: "I've completed my night shift and stupidly put petrol in the diesel Smart in error". I instructed him to let us know where he was situated and we headed out, ending up in Dayhouse Bank under an hour later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for arriving so promptly. As we were heading back to base we found two ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.
