Fuel Drain Wickhurst - Wickhurst Wrong Fuel Drain

What a great night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a gloomy Tuesday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Kia in Wickhurst. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I reached the location and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only just got it several days ago right after my other one, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a precious Kent lady!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Kent we are noticing a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to motorists not being totally sure how to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And definitely do not start the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Fuel Drain Wickhurst - Wickhurst Fuel Removal

I'd had a great afternoon cycling during my holiday and felt delighted the next working day as I was en route to aid a young family on holiday in Wickhurst. They had conked out after filling diesel in their Vauxhall, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I heard to the lady telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this happens continuously in Kent and that it's in reality nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what my missus would say to me if perhaps I made the same mistake... I'd never hear the end of it!
