Vehicle Misfuel Yarkhill - Yarkhill Wrong Fuel in Car

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Sunday and I was off to help an old lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Kia in Yarkhill. I'd been informed she had left the filling station and stranded in a backwater road en route to pay a visit to her family. I punched the location in the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I'd only just got it several days ago after my other one, which I'd had for more than 30 years, inevitably broke down". I completed the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Herefordshire lady!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Herefordshire we have identified more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container laying in the rear of your garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Herefordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even several containers in an outbuilding, providing we can reach it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Yarkhill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

They can also take care of any of the most common problems that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Yarkhill - Yarkhill Fuel Rescue

I enjoyed a perfect afternoon fishing during my off day and felt cheerful the following day as I was en route to assist a new couple on vacation in Yarkhill. They had stopped after inserting diesel in their Chevrolet, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I listened to the gal chastising her partner for actually being so confused. "How could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this problem goes on everyday in Herefordshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to be anxious about, nonetheless he yet still had an ear bashing. Poor chap. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted bon voyage and wondered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

We supply you with fresh fuel at petrol station cost, and we can typically have your car drained and ready to be run inside of one hour. All mixed fuel is discarded by us through a registered waste company and recycled. It doesn't matter where you are located in the the country, Wrong Fuel SoS will be able to get a drainer out to you to do a complete fuel drain on your car.


Recent Fuel Drains in Yarkhill

Some of the common troubles we have heard from the employees in Yarkhill:

It must be horrible being stuck in a car filled with the improper fuel in the middle of the road. One of our last customers who put contaminated fuel in her car (Kia) in Yarkhill encountered literally that dilemma: "Your man helped me to move my vehicle from the road. He drained it and had it functioning again in less than a half-hour. Highly recommended."

Wrong Fuel Drain Yarkhill - Yarkhill Fuel Drain

A young lady from Yarkhill with her youngsters in her diesel MINI had put £42 of petrol at the station. She phoned us crying and really upset as she had never wrong fuelled previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that the vehicle would be fine and that she would be back up and running in no time at all. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the children in the back."

A person phoned us from his place on a close in Yarkhill. He explained, "My car (a Vauxhall) is not starting up and is creating terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would resolve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, did the drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He said that he would be certain to tell people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it drained immediately.
