Wrong Fuel in Car Wotton-under-Edge, Gloucestershire

Our Fields of Specialties:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Gloucestershire we have discovered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it right away. And of course don't start up the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel may well produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances rather simply.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial premises in Gloucestershire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Wotton-under-Edge (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up the car. They are also able to handle the typical issues which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

A man rang us from his residence on a street in Wotton-under-Edge. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Renault) is not running and is making awful noises when I flip the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car however thought he would fix the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said that he would be certain to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.

Recent Fuel Drains in Wotton-under-Edge

A few of the more ordinary things we have heard from our specialists in Wotton-under-Edge:

Now I'm certainly not excessively hot for running on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd only just left home after having a tasty dinner cooked for me by the wife, and I was on my way to help a guy who had filled the incorrect petrol in his Renault. He was located in Wotton-under-Edge so I arrived there rapidly. Just as I drove up behind the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other things and did not grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about harm as a result of starting it?" I revealed that truth be told there should not be any damage and also that I'd personally get the fuel drained at once. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another delighted motorist was able to continue on his trip without the need for difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what makes operating on weekends in Gloucestershire just that little bit less painful to me!

Vehicle Misfuel Wotton-under-Edge - Wotton-under-Edge Vehicle Misfuel

This was most definitely what is called the night shift. It was about 2 in the morning and noone was around. It was fairly dead up to now, and Ryan and I were relaxing browsing a number of old papers. That was a rare quiet time in Gloucestershire. Actually it was in fact so tranquil that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The customer stated: "I finished my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel Mazda in error". I asked him to let us know where exactly he was and we hit the road, reaching him in Wotton-under-Edge under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for showing up so rapidly. While we were returning to the office we saw two ladies at the side of the road who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, to their elation.
