Wrong Fuel Doctor The Foxholes - The Foxholes Wrong Fuel Doctor

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to assist an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall in The Foxholes. She told us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up along a country lane on route to visit her godchildren. I punched her location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "I am getting relatively forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel because I had only acquired it a couple of days back when my old car, which I had had for over 30 years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Shropshire lady!

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Shropshire we have identified progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking area. If you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank in the back of the garden full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Shropshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

This was most definitely what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly sunrise and noone was about. It was pretty dead until now, and me and Brian were sitting reading through several old articles. It was a rare quiet time in Shropshire. Actually it was indeed so peaceful that the moment my mobile ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The customer explained: "I have only just completed my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel Vauxhall in error". We instructed him to let us know just where the vehicle was situated and we left, getting to him in The Foxholes under an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for coming out so fast. While we were heading back home we saw two women on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.
