Wrong Fuel Elswick - Elswick Petrol in Diesel

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was on my way to help an older lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel Volvo in Elswick. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a country road en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and arrived inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she said, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had just got it a couple of days back after my old car, which I had had for more than twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I completed the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Lancashire lady!

Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lancashire we have encountered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely do not start up the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel is going to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite quickly.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Lancashire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered 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 container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Elswick (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix the usual problems which might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.


Vehicle Misfuel Elswick - Elswick Fuel Rescue

I enjoyed a perfect day hiking on my off day and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I was on the way to aid a young family who were vacationing in Elswick. They had pulled over after putting diesel in their MG, and were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation happens everyday in Lancashire and that it's nothing at all to stress about, even so he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and wondered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

We provide you with clean fuel at petrol station cost, and we are able to normally have your car fixed and set to be run in less than an hour. All waste fuel is disposed of by us through a registered waste carrier and recycled. No matter wherever you are in the the country, Wrong Fuel SoS is able to get a drainer out to you to do a complete fuel drain on your automobile.

We got a call from a man whose Vauxhall had conked out on a street after a misfuel. "I got the pumps mixed up and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my vehicle by mistake.
