A motorist broken down on a road in John OGaunt needed a fuel drain around a month back. His Volkswagen was broken down on the side of the road after he had misfueled.

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Leicestershire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never start up the car - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed in the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a garage, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in John OGaunt (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your car or truck. They will fix any of the usual troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel John OGaunt - John OGaunt Fuel Rescue

I'd had a wonderful afternoon golfing during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I was on the way to assist a young family away in John OGaunt. They had conked out after inserting diesel in their Peugeot, and they were close to an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her partner off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem takes place constantly in Leicestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, but he yet still had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my missus would do to me if ever I made the same error... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!
