Vehicle Misfuel East Huntspill - East Huntspill Wrong Fuel Assist

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and I was on the way to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel Mazda in East Huntspill. She told us that she had left the filling station and stranded in a rural road on the way to see her family. I plugged her location into the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel because I had only just acquired it a few days ago because my previous one, which I had owned for about 30 years, finally died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Somerset woman!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any related issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Somerset we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers not knowing the right way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course take care not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can easily cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and business properties in Somerset to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, providing we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in East Huntspill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car. They can also take care of any of the usual problems that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

We performed a wrong fuel removal exercise near a spectacular house in East Huntspill a few weeks ago. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and managed to almost reach home when my car cut out."

Fuel Rescue East Huntspill - East Huntspill Wrong Fuel Assist

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and nobody was around. It was fairly uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were loafing about looking at a number of old papers. That was a rare calm moment in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that the moment my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The person told me: "I have just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel Vauxhall". We instructed him to tell us exactly where he was and we left, reaching him in East Huntspill only half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we found two young ladies at the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Drain East Huntspill - East Huntspill Petrol in Diesel

A person contacted us from his house on a road in East Huntspill. He said, "My vehicle (a Kia) is not starting and is producing very bad sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the drain and filled him up again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he would be sure to explain to people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.
