Fuel Removal Welling - Welling Wrong Fuel Doctor

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and we were off to assist an old lady who put petrol in her diesel Hyundai in Welling. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and stranded on a backwater road on route to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she explained, "I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a week back when my other car, which I used for more than 25 years, finally died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Waltham Forest woman!

AdBlue Contamination

All around Waltham Forest we are finding more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely take care not to switch on the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances rather swiftly.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial premises in Waltham Forest to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Welling (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Waltham Forest Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and refill the car. They will deal with the typical problems that might accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Welling - Welling Fuel Removal

This was certainly the night shift. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It was fairly dead up to now, and Paul and I were sitting about looking through a couple of old articles. That was an unusual calm moment in Waltham Forest. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that when the telephone rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end explained: "I have completed my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus". We asked him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him in Welling under an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car and he thanked us for coming so promptly. As we were going back home we spotted two women on the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Welling - Welling Wrong Fuel

A man phoned us from his residence on a close in Welling. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Land Rover) is not starting and is producing terrible sounds when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would solve the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, did the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us that he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
