Wrong Fuel Doctor North Benfleet - North Benfleet Wrong Fuel Drain

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a bright Tuesday and we were off to help an older lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Mercedes in North Benfleet. I had been informed she had left the petrol station and pulled up along a rural lane on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was working she said, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only just purchased it a few days back because my former one, which I had used for about 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Essex woman!

Services We Provide:

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Essex we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part thanks to motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our engineers have got the technical know-how and working experience to have you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to deal with in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Fuel Rescue North Benfleet - North Benfleet Wrong Fuel Drain

A gentleman had stopped near a street in North Benfleet. His Smart engine had ceased running and he'd no clue what was faulty until he noticed he put petrol in his diesel vehicle.

I'm certainly not overly hot for doing the job Sundays, and last week was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids filled with a lovely Sunday roast prepared for us by the wife, and I was on the way to sort out a fellow after he filled the wrong fuel in his BMW. He was located in North Benfleet thus it wasn't long before I reached him. As I arrived behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my concentration on other considerations and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created some harm because of driving it?" I determined that there shouldn't be any damage and also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and another delighted client was able to continue their trip without any subsequent difficulty. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what helps make earning a living on weekends in Essex just that small bit better for me!
