Wrong Fuel in Car Blacklands, Herefordshire

Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Blacklands

If you've put the wrong fuel in your car and at this point require the wrong fuel removed you are in all likelihood searching the internet hunting for a fast, trusted, competent and price effective wrong fuel removal company in Blacklands or Herefordshire. We are the contractor for you!

It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were resting going over the weekend's golf, waiting for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Blacklands and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall hire car in error. She was very distressed apparently, crying "I can not believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things do happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got very wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and less worried. A job in Herefordshire done well in my mind!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Herefordshire we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to use it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is going to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of your premises full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Herefordshire for the purpose of 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. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Blacklands (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with the common problems which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Blacklands - Blacklands Fuel Drain

Yesterday a customer telephoned us because his Dacia died on a street in Blacklands. He had accidentally put the incorrect fuel in the diesel motor and had managed to drive to the street before needing to pull up. It was early in the morning and our fuel drainer, who lives locally, was with him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel back in the vehicle. "Thank you for your fast response, especially at 3 a.m., I am grateful for it."
