Wrong Fuel in Car Elstow, Bedfordshire

Our Areas of Expertise:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Bedfordshire we have discovered a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking place. Assuming you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can easily result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Bedfordshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Elstow (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Bedfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will handle any of the usual problems which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Elstow - Elstow Fuel Drain

A man had conked out just near a road in Elstow. His Skoda motor had ceased operating and he had no clue what was wrong until eventually he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten absolutely no rest the day before and that must have been the key reason why.

Several examples:

We recently received a phone call about a motorist who had put the wrong fuel in his Land Rover in Elstow. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "It was incredible how speedy you people were in getting someone out to help me after I stupidly petrol in my diesel. Thank you so much". Naturally we arrived promptly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. The client was over the moon by the time we were done and he went away cheerful.
