Wrong Fuel Doctor Setchey - Setchey Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and I was off to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel Toyota in Setchey. I'd been advised she had driven away from the filling station and was pulled up along a rural road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the car and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel as I had only bought it a week back when my previous car, which I'd owned for in excess of 25 years, finally died on me". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Norfolk woman!

No matter whether you're driving a state of the art car or an old style, we have the hardware and practical experience to repair the problem right there. We clear away all the incorrect fuel, address any complications created by the misfueling, and get you running.

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Norfolk we have seen progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations pretty quickly.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of the garden containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Norfolk to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Setchey (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Norfolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to refill your automobile if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your vehicle. They can also deal with any of the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Fuel Removal Setchey - Setchey Fuel Removal

A gentleman rang us from his place on a road in Setchey. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Fiat) is not starting up and is creating awful sounds when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle however believed he would fix the problem by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel. He told us that he would be sure to tell people not to fill up over the incorrect fuel but to have it cleaned out immediately.


Recent Fuel Drains in Setchey

Several stories:

We recently got a phone call from a man who had put the incorrect fuel in his Kia in Setchey. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "It was amazing how rapid you were in sending a fuel drainer out to assist me after I erroneously unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you so much". Needless to say we arrived on the scene rapidly and purged the engine after draining all the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the technician said the client was raging, but was pretty happy when we finished.

Fuel Removal Setchey - Setchey Wrong Fuel Drain

A man who had unfortunately put the wrong fuel in his diesel Mercedes called us for a fuel drain at the Esso filling station in Setchey. He thought it would be good to top up before continuing on to the nearby holiday park . "I put unleaded as opposed to diesel which probably wasn't a good way to begin to our holiday break." It was certainly no hassle at all for our fuel drainer to go and do the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their getaway.

Wrong Fuel Setchey - Setchey Petrol in Diesel

The other day a man phoned us because his MG cut out along a street in Setchey. He had inadvertently put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and got to the street before having to give up. It was yet early in the day and our technician, who resides close by, reached him in about a quarter hour. We were able to drain the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again in the car. "Thank you for your fast response, and in particular at 5 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
