Vehicle Misfuel Merton Park - Merton Park Wrong Fuel in Car

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Sunday and we were on my way to assist an elder lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Peugeot in Merton Park. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and stranded along a rural road on route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only just got it a couple of days ago when my previous car, which I had used for over twenty years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. Such a delightful Merton lady!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Merton we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers being unsure of the way to use it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course never start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Merton to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

We are able to get out to refill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home.

They are also able to take care of the common problems which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Merton Park - Merton Park Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a great evening cycling during my off day and was feeling satisfied the next day as I set out to help a young family on vacation in Merton Park. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their Kia, and the car was around half an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the wife berating her partner for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this occurs regularly in Merton and that it is nothing to fret about, however he yet still had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I drained all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my missus would ask me in the event that I made the same error... I would never hear the end of it!

It truly was what we call an unsociable hour to be awake. It was roughly 3:30am and noone was stirring. It had been quite quiet up to now, and John and I were relaxing reading several old articles. It was an unusual restful time in Merton. Actually it was in fact so quiet that when the phone rang it made me start! The voice on the phone said: "I've ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a MG". I told him to let us know just where he was located and we left, arriving in Merton Park no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine. He thanked us for coming so fast. As we were coming back home we noticed two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.

A couple weeks ago a young man phoned us because his Volvo died on a street in Merton Park. He had unintentionally put the incorrect fuel in his diesel car and was only able to drive as far as the road before having to stop. It was yet early in the morning and our technician, who stays nearby, arrived with him in approximately fifteen minutes. We managed to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back in the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I appreciate it."
