Wrong Fuel Purley - Purley Petrol in Diesel

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and we were on my way to assist an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Purley. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a country road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched in the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was doing the work she told me, "I am getting rather absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd only just acquired it a short while ago when my other one, which I used for over 30 years, inevitably broke down". I got the job done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Croydon lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car Purley - Purley Wrong Fuel Drain

I enjoyed a wonderful evening fishing on the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a new family holidaying in Purley. They broken down after adding diesel in their Toyota, and the car was about half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself while I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs regularly in Croydon and that it's nothing at all to worry about, however he still had an earful. Poor guy. Anyway, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never live it down!

Services We Provide:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Croydon we have noticed a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from motorists not understanding how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely don't crank the vehicle - not even to move it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the car you would likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly simply.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and business properties in Croydon to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Purley (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Croydon Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will fix the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
