Wrong Fuel Drain Gorefield - Gorefield Petrol in Diesel

What a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an old lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Volvo in Gorefield. I had been told she drove away from the petrol station and was broken down in a backwater lane en route to see her godchildren. I got the location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene inside an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel since I'd only just bought it a few days ago when my former one, which I'd owned for about 30 years, finally died". I completed the drain and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Cambridgeshire lady!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Cambridgeshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not understanding the right way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely never start the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both cases quite quickly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank sitting at the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Cambridgeshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Gorefield (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Cambridgeshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will take care of the typical issues which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Gorefield - Gorefield Vehicle Misfuel

Last week a driver contacted us because his Mitsubishi died in the middle of a street in Gorefield. He had inadvertently put unleaded in his diesel car and was only able to get to the street before being forced to stop. It was early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides not far away, reached him in about 15 minutes. We were able to remove the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 3 a.m., I appreciate it."

We had a phone call from a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his Toyota in Gorefield. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the dilemma till we broke down. You took the wrong fuel from my car and got it working again. I was impressed by both your call-out time and your pricing". Of course we got there punctually and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. The driver was smiling again by the time we finished and he went away completely satisfied.

Wrong Fuel Drain Gorefield - Gorefield Wrong Fuel in Car

A woman from Gorefield with her kids in her diesel Volkswagen had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the Tesco station. She called us crying and extremely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that everything would be fine and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically with the little ones in the back."

A man had stopped just near a street in Gorefield. His Jaguar motor had stopped operating and he had no idea what was the problem right up until he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I didn't comprehend that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten no rest the evening before and that could have been the reason.
