Vehicle Misfuel Rothbury - Rothbury Wrong Fuel Assist

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Tuesday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Hyundai in Rothbury. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and was pulled up along a country road en route to visit her godchildren. I plugged her location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel as I had only just got it several days back after my previous car, which I had had for about twenty years, eventually stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Northumberland woman!

Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any related problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Northumberland we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And of course do not start the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases very quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in Northumberland to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Rothbury (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Northumberland Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the usual issues which might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Rothbury

Testimonies from our Rothbury employees:

I'm not actually that enthusiastic about carrying out work Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd only just come away from the family after eating a superb roast made by the better half, and I was on my way to assist a guy after he filled the wrong fuel in his Smart. He was somewhere in Rothbury thus it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I pulled up behind the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and failed to realise I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I created any kind of damage by driving it?" I explained there should not be any kind of damage and also that I would personally drain the contaminated fuel immediately for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and then yet another happy motorist was able to carry on with his travelling without any subsequent bother. The guy could not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in Northumberland just that small bit less painful in my opinion!

Petrol in Diesel Rothbury - Rothbury Fuel Rescue

A lady from Rothbury with a full car of little ones in her diesel Lexus had filled her car with £42 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She phoned us crying and genuinely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that all would be alright and that she would be back up and running soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly cheered up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
