Fuel Drain Tilbury Green - Tilbury Green Wrong Fuel

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Tuesday and I was off to help an elder lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia in Tilbury Green. She told us that she had left the petrol station and broken down on a backwater lane en route to visit her grandchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the destination and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a couple of days back after my former car, which I had for more than thirty years, finally died". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Essex woman!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Essex we have encountered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (important: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And obviously do not switch on the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

Now I'm not too hot for carrying out work weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had only just come away from home following a lovely dinner prepared for me by the missus, and I was en route to deal with a fellow who filled the incorrect petrol in his Lexus. He was somewhere in Tilbury Green so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I drove up at the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Lord! I had my mind on other things and didn't perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any kind of problems by running it?" I said generally there should not be any kind of problems and that also I would get the contaminated fuel drained immediately for him. Naturally I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some correct fuel, and yet another content motorist could carry on with their trip without the need for bother. The man could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this makes earning a living on Sundays in Essex just that little bit less painful in my opinion!
