Wrong Fuel Doctor Accrington - Accrington Wrong Fuel

A customer had conked out on a street, Accrington just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was sobbing and quite troubled as she had put £55 petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we attempted to cool her as well as we could, telling her that all would be no problem. By the time we reached her she was no longer distressed and was pretty interested in observing our fuel drainer do the fuel drain on her Hyundai. Afterwards she said: "My car is akin to my baby, I recently paid for it and it truly worried me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm so happy that it was very easily fixable."

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at once. And most definitely don't switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel can certainly trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Lancashire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Accrington (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle the most common troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.


Fuel Removal Accrington - Accrington Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a fantastic day cycling on my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the following day as I set out to help a young family holidaying in Accrington. They had conked out after filling petrol into their SEAT, and they were around an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smirked as I heard to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem goes on everyday in Lancashire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would tell me in the event that I made the same error... I'd never live it down!

Therefore, it doesn't matter if you require a wrong fuel drain or just advice on how to proceed, you can call us 24/7. We are awaiting your call to give you help and our technical expertise to get your car back on the road anew. Call up to request aid and also information:
