Wrong Fuel Drain Hastingleigh - Hastingleigh Wrong Fuel Drain

The driver of a MG was sorry that he had put petrol in his diesel automobile when he got onto the street and it spluttered and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel car," is what he said to us the initial time he called. To be honest, when he first called us he said he would like to comparison shop, but he phoned us back soon enough because our price and on-scene times were the best.

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a solution that?s made of a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea.It tends to be disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pushed into your fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, bringing about catastrophic and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If you did start the car you will in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances very expediently.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container laying in the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Kent for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even several drums in a shed, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Hastingleigh - Hastingleigh Wrong Fuel

I appreciated a perfect day cycling during my holiday and was feeling satisfied the next day as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in Hastingleigh. They had broken down after adding diesel into their Lexus, and they were around an hour's drive away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her hubby for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you even be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs constantly in Kent and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted so long and considered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

With more than 100 years of combined wrong fuel removal knowledge you couldn't be in safer hands. Our operatives have experienced the lot and fixed the lot. They are properly trained on the newest automobiles and maintain all applicable certificates.

Recent Fuel Drains in Hastingleigh

Here are examples and illustrations of fuel drains we've undertaken in Hastingleigh:

We fairly recently had a phone call from a motorist who put the wrong fuel in his Land Rover in Hastingleigh. He had conked out on the street. "It was terrific how fast you guys were in sending an engineer out to aid me after I stupidly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thanks". As you can imagine we got there rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the driver was scowling, but was pretty happy after the fuel drain.

Wrong Fuel Drain Hastingleigh - Hastingleigh Wrong Fuel

A driver from Hastingleigh with her little ones in her diesel Vauxhall had put £30 of petrol at the Sainsburys service station. She contacted us crying and very worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what would happen to her car . We reassured her that everything would be fine and that she would be up and running soon. When we arrived she was still distressed but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

Wrong Fuel Drain Hastingleigh - Hastingleigh Petrol in Diesel

The other day a youngster phoned us after his Suzuki stopped working on a street in Hastingleigh. He had unintentionally put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and got to the road before being forced to halt. It was yet in the early hours of the morning and our engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again in to the vehicle. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 2 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
