Wrong Fuel in Car Conington - Conington Wrong Fuel Assist

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and I was off to help an old lovely lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Mazda in Conington. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I reached the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd only purchased it a few days back after my old car, which I'd used for more than twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Cambridgeshire woman!

Our Areas of Competency :

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Cambridgeshire we have seen more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers not being aware of how to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And absolutely never turn over the car - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances quite easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Assist Conington - Conington Fuel Rescue

I enjoyed a perfect evening hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented the next day as I set off to assist a new couple who were away in Conington. They had stopped after inserting diesel into their Kia, and they were about an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smiled while I listened to the lady telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this goes on regularly in Cambridgeshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, and yet he yet still got an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky lad. In any case, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would ask me if I did the same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Petrol in Diesel Conington - Conington Fuel Rescue

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and noone was about. It was rather dead thus far, and me and Mark were relaxing reading through a number of old magazines. It was a rare peaceful hour in Cambridgeshire. It was so quiet that when the telephone finally rang it made me start! The person on the phone said: "I have only just finished my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my diesel Toyota in error". I told him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was situated and we left, reaching him in Conington an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the car and he thanked us for showing up so fast. While we were heading back to the office we spotted two girls on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat. So we got out and helped them change it, to their elation.

Fuel Removal Conington - Conington Wrong Fuel

I had appreciated a terrific day golfing during my day off and was feeling contented the following working day as I set off to assist a new couple who were holidaying in Conington. They'd conked out after putting petrol in their Smart, and were roughly half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling off her partner for turning out to be so foolish. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this happens frequently in Cambridgeshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to stress about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would under no circumstances live it down!
