It was close to 6 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were relaxing talking about the recent golf rankings, prepared for the 6th job to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Ford and put petrol in a diesel Chevrolet lease car in error. She was fairly troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could reach her without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and less concerned. Another job in Herefordshire done well in my books!

If you have unleaded in the diesel car or truck, or diesel in the petrol automobile ( amazingly most motorists do this at least once sometime) - we handle it right away. Wrong Fuel SoS' skilled technicians are on call 24/7. Just call our emergency number and someone will come to you, drain the wrong fuel and get you rapidly back on your way.

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Herefordshire we are discovering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may most likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases very expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Herefordshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, if we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Ford (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your automobile. They can also handle any of the typical problems that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Ford - Ford Vehicle Misfuel

A guy had broken down near a street in Ford. His Renault car had ceased working and he had no idea what was the problem till he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I can't believe that I did not comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had got zero sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
