Incorrect fuel in your car in Wiswell? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this hour of need and get you driving again with our expert fuel drain assistance.

It was just after 7 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there going over the tennis, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Wiswell and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ford rental in error. The poor lady was quite irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably can happen. She was able to move the car to a protected position and, because it was only a short distance away from our van, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Lancashire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Lancashire we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you end up in this predicament do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have got the practical know-how and working experience to have you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases very simply.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in Lancashire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Wiswell (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your car. They are also able to deal with any of the typical issues which might come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Wiswell - Wiswell Wrong Fuel Doctor

A gentleman rang us from his place on a street in Wiswell. He explained, "My vehicle (a Volkswagen) is not starting and is generating very bad sounds when I turn the key." He said that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
