Wrong Fuel Drain Shirley holms - Shirley holms Petrol in Diesel

A motorist had broken down on a road, Shirley holms having just misfueled. She was weeping and truly agitated as she had put £60 petrol in her diesel car. When she phoned us we tried to calm her as well as we could, assuring her that it would be fine. By the time we got to her she was not troubled any more and was pretty interested in watching our technician complete the fuel drain on her Chevrolet. Soon after she said: "My vehicle is like my baby, I only recently paid for it and it genuinely worried me that I had put a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm very pleased that it was so easily fixable."

Services We Give:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Hampshire we are identifying progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being aware of the way to use it (note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly don't crank the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will often result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations rather simply.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank lying in the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Hampshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Shirley holms (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) to fill your automobile. They are also able to deal with the common troubles which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
