Fuel Drain Kenley - Kenley Wrong Fuel in Car

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Saturday and I was on my way to help an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel Honda in Kenley. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was pulled up in a country road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I reached the location and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel since I had only got it several days ago after my previous car, which I had used for in excess of twenty years, inevitably died on me". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a precious Croydon lady!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Croydon we are discovering progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly caused by motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously never crank the vehicle - not even to move it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Croydon for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Kenley (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a complete Croydon Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill up the car. They are also able to take care of the most common issues which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Kenley

Various examples:

It must be horrible breaking down in a car with the improper fuel in the middle of the street. We had a customer who put petrol in his diesel car (Peugeot) in Kenley suffered with exactly that type of issue: "Obviously I incorrectly filled my car with the wrong fuel last week. I was so worried about my mistake that I was in tears. But I didn't need to worry seeing as you were amazing in draining and cleaning my car."

Wrong Fuel Assist Kenley - Kenley Vehicle Misfuel

A woman from Kenley with a full car of youngsters in her diesel Skoda had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She contacted us crying and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that the car would be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the youngsters on board."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kenley - Kenley Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a great day hiking during the weekend and was feeling delighted the next day as I headed out to aid a young couple on vacation in Kenley. They pulled over after adding petrol into their Vauxhall, and were close to an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smirked as I listened to the wife chastising her man for turning out to be so daft. "How could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs constantly in Croydon and that it's in reality nothing to be anxious about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I removed all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some correct fuel. As they drove off I mouthed good bye and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same error... I'd never live it down!
