Wrong Fuel Drain Glentworth - Glentworth Fuel Rescue

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Saturday and we were off to assist an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel Mazda in Glentworth. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a country road along the way to see her family. I plugged the location in the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I reached the stricken lady and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing it she said, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had only just bought it a couple of days ago right after my former car, which I'd used for more than thirty years, finally stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Lincolnshire lady!

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have seen progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part caused by motorists being unsure of how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And absolutely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to move it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a garage, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Glentworth (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will be able to deal with any of the usual troubles that might accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Glentworth - Glentworth Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a terrific evening fishing during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to aid a young family holidaying in Glentworth. They pulled over after adding diesel in their Hyundai, and the car was about an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smiled as I listened to the wife berating her man for turning out to be so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this situation goes on regularly in Lincolnshire and that it's actually nothing to be anxious about, but he all the same had an earful by his missus. Poor lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the very same error... I'd personally never live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Glentworth

Various reviews:

We recently got a phone call from a motorist who had put the wrong fuel in his BMW in Glentworth. He had conked out on the road. "It was terrific how speedy you guys were in getting an engineer out to assist me after I stupidly unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you". Of course we got there promptly and purged the engine after flushing the petrol from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the customer was raging, but was happy after the fuel drain.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Glentworth - Glentworth Petrol in Diesel

This was most definitely the night shift. It was about 3 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had become quite dead so far, and me and Ray were relaxing perusing a few old newspapers. That was a rare restful moment in Lincolnshire. It was indeed that tranquil that the instant the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The person on the other end told me: "I have only just concluded my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a Renault in error". We told him to let us know just where the car was located and we left, getting to him in Glentworth only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor and he thanked us profusely for getting there so quickly. While we were heading back home we noticed two ladies at the edge of the street who looked like they had a puncture. So we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Glentworth - Glentworth Fuel Drain

Yesterday a driver called us just after his Lexus ground to a halt in the middle of a street in Glentworth. He had mistakenly put unleaded in the diesel vehicle and was only able to drive as far as the road before being forced to pull over. It was actually early in the morning and our engineer, who stays nearby, got to him in approximately a quarter hour. We were able to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back in to the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
