Fuel Drain Wickwar - Wickwar Vehicle Misfuel

Just had a great night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Wednesday and I was off to assist an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi in Wickwar. I'd been advised she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a country lane on the way to see her godchildren. I got the location punched in the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the drain she said, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel since I'd just got it several days ago because my previous car, which I'd used for more than thirty years, finally died on me". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. What a pleasant Gloucestershire lady!

Our Services:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Gloucestershire we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not understanding how to use it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Should you end up in this position don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol can potentially lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Gloucestershire 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. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Wickwar (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They are also able to take care of the usual problems which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Doctor Wickwar - Wickwar Wrong Fuel Doctor

A person phoned us from Wickwar saying he had mistakenly pumped the wrong fuel into his diesel MINI. "Unbelievable! I can't believe I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It only took the fuel drainer approximately 50 minutes to completely drain the contaminated fuel out of the car. He carefully cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and put clean diesel in the car. The customer was delighted and it didn't cost him car dealership prices to get the job properly performed.

All of our experts are qualified on the most up-to-date cars and trucks and their fuel systems. We perform over 6,000 fuel drains yearly in the United Kingdom (sure, there are that many customers who also make the mistake - you aren't by yourself). Our lines are open twenty four hours a day and seven days a week. Our technicians are on-call when ever you require them.


Recent Fuel Drains in Wickwar

Underneath are opinions and instances of contaminated fuel removal carried out in Wickwar:

We were contacted by a gentleman whose Mitsubishi had broken down on a street after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and put petrol instead of diesel in my car by mistake. You guys arrived and sorted out the situation after my car stopped." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines meticulously and the gentleman could continue on with his sheduled delivery.

Fuel Drain Wickwar - Wickwar Fuel Rescue

A woman from Wickwar with her youngsters in her diesel Vauxhall had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She called us weeping and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what could happen to her car . We told her that the car would be alright and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the youngsters on board."

Fuel Rescue Wickwar - Wickwar Wrong Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a fantastic evening golfing on my off day and was feeling pleased the following working day as I set out to aid a new family who were holidaying in Wickwar. They had conked out after putting petrol in their Mercedes, and were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed as I heard to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this takes place frequently in Gloucestershire and that it's really absolutely nothing to worry about, however he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
