Wrong Fuel Launceston - Launceston Petrol in Diesel

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Sunday and we were off to assist an older sweetheart after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel Lexus in Launceston. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was broken down on a backwater road on route to see her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I got to the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she told me, "I have been becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only bought it a short while back right after my previous one, which I had owned for more than 30 years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Cornwall woman!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cornwall we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not understanding the way to work with it (remember: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can easily contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Cornwall for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Launceston (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Cornwall Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your automobile if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They can also fix any of the usual troubles that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Launceston

A few of the more common stories we pick up from many of our specialists in Launceston:

Just picture being stuck in a automobile running on the wrong fuel on the street. Recently a customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (Volvo) in Launceston endured literally that kind of problem: "Obviously I incorrectly put the wrong fuel in my car a few days ago. I was so worried about my mistake that I was actually in tears. And yet I shouldn't have concerned myself as you were excellent in dealing with the problem."

Petrol in Diesel Launceston - Launceston Petrol in Diesel

This was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to 2 in the morning and almost noone was around. It was quite uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were loafing reading through a few old articles. It was an uncommon quiet time in Cornwall. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the moment my mobile finally rang I jumped! The voice on the other end told me: "I've ended my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel Renault in error". We told him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we hit the road, reaching him in Launceston under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleared from the motor and he thanked us profusely for coming so promptly. While we were coming back home we saw two women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.
