Wrong Fuel Doctor Rosehill - Rosehill Wrong Fuel in Car

What a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was off to assist an old lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Honda in Rosehill. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a backwater road en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was working she explained, "I have been becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I'd only just got it a short while ago when my former car, which I'd had for about 25 years, inevitably died". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Sutton woman!

Thus, in case you've filled your petrol car with diesel, or put petrol in your diesel vehicle wherever in Sutton, phone us right away. Our experienced mechanics are completely ready for your call.

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Sutton we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to start up the engine - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you may in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances very expediently.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we can reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container lying in the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Sutton to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Rosehill (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Sutton Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill up your car. They will deal with the most common issues that may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
