Our Areas of Competence :

We can help you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cumbria we have encountered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from motorists not being aware of how to work with it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And of course be careful not to crank the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel is going to result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly expediently.

You should know however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial properties in Cumbria to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Grange-over-Sands (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Cumbria Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They will deal with the normal troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Grange-over-Sands - Grange-over-Sands Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman rang us from his residence on a road in Grange-over-Sands. He explained, "My vehicle (a Hyundai) is not starting and is generating awful sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car however thought he would fix the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled it up again with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he would be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to get it drained immediately.

Recent Fuel Drains in Grange-over-Sands

Various reports:

We recently got a phone call about a businessman who put the wrong fuel in his Mitsubishi in Grange-over-Sands. He had conked out on the street. "It was amazing how quick you were in getting an engineer out to help me after I erroneously filled my diesel car with petrol. I'm very grateful". It goes without saying that we got there rapidly and purged the engine after flushing the petrol from the diesel tank. The client was delighted by the time we finished and he drove off satisfied and content.

This was an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly 3 in the morning and nobody was about. It had been fairly dead up to now, and me and Mark were relaxing reading several old magazines. This was a rare quiet moment in Cumbria. Actually it was so calm that the moment my mobile rang I jumped! The customer on the phone said: "I have completed my overnight shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in the Chevrolet". We asked him to tell us where the car was located and we hit the road, reaching him in Grange-over-Sands an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car. He said thanks for showing up so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we noticed two girls on the edge of the road who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, to their delight.

Fuel Drain Grange-over-Sands - Grange-over-Sands Wrong Fuel Assist

I'd had a wonderful afternoon cycling during my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following day as I set out to aid a new couple who were on holiday in Grange-over-Sands. They conked out after inserting petrol in their Volkswagen, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her man off for being so silly. "How could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this happens constantly in Cumbria and that it is nothing at all to fret about, however he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I made the exact same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!
