Petrol in Diesel Portsea - Portsea Wrong Fuel Assist

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Kia in Portsea. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a rural road en route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour. I turned up at the location and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing it she told me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had only just bought it several days back after my former car, which I'd owned for in excess of thirty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. What a precious Hampshire lady!

Our Areas of Competency :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hampshire we are discovering progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being totally sure the right way to use it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In case you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Hampshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Portsea (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Hampshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill your car. They are also able to deal with any of the usual problems which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Fuel Rescue Portsea - Portsea Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a great day golfing during the weekend and was feeling delighted the following working day as I set off to assist a new couple who were away in Portsea. They had pulled over after putting diesel into their Citroen, and were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass everyday in Hampshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, even so he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I drained all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove off I shouted farewell and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same error... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

All of our technicians are trained on the most recent automobiles and their fuel systems. We attend well over 6,000 contaminated fuel removals yearly in the United Kingdom (sure, there are that many people who make the mistake - you are not the only person). Our phone lines are open 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Our engineers are available at any time when you need them.


Recent Fuel Drains in Portsea

Here are feed-back and illustrations of fuel drains completed in Portsea:

It's no fun being stranded in a car full of the incorrect fuel halfway down the road. One of our most recent customers who put the incorrect fuel in her car (Honda) in Portsea endured precisely this kind of issue: "As you know I erroneously put petrol in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so troubled about it that I was actually in tears. However I didn't need to worry seeing as you were amazing in fixing it."

Wrong Fuel in Car Portsea - Portsea Wrong Fuel Assist

A lady from Portsea with a full car of kids in her diesel Chevrolet had put £20 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She phoned us crying and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that all would be ok and that she would be on the road quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the kids on board."

Wrong Fuel Assist Portsea - Portsea Fuel Rescue

A motorist had conked out near a road in Portsea. His Smart car had ceased running and he'd no clue what was awry right up until he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not know that I had put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had gotten no rest the day before and that must have been the key reason why.
