Wrong Fuel Shadforth - Shadforth Petrol in Diesel

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and we were off to help an older sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat in Shadforth. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and broken down in a backwater road on route to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I reached the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I'd only just bought it a few days ago after my former one, which I had owned for over 25 years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a precious County Durham woman!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in the event that you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a blend of urea and deionized water.Adblue is actually devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be squirted into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And of course do not crank the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you may likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations fairly swiftly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in County Durham to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Recent Fuel Drains in Shadforth

Several reviews:

Now I am not ever excessively keen on doing the job weekends, and the other day was the same. I had only just left home after a lovely dinner cooked for us by the missus, and I was off to help a gentleman who had put the wrong fuel in his Mercedes. He was only in Shadforth so I was on scene rapidly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my concentration on something else and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any damage as a result of starting it?" I explained that truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of problems and also that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately for him. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and then another satisfied customer was able to carry on with their ride without the need for hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and this tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in County Durham that tiny bit better in my opinion!

Wrong Fuel in Car Shadforth - Shadforth Wrong Fuel in Car

A customer driving in Shadforth phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her wrong fuelled car to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia and, like countless prior to her, assumed that she would be able to basically fill up the tank with diesel and it would be alright. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she came to the the front of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it repaired within 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really happy you repaired my vehicle."

Fuel Removal Shadforth - Shadforth Petrol in Diesel

A man contacted us from his place on a close in Shadforth. He pronounced, "My car (a BMW) is not starting and is producing terrible noises when I flip the ignition." He said that he put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the fuel drain and filled him up again with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be sure to tell people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
