Wrong Fuel in Car Haydon - Haydon Fuel Removal

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel Skoda in Haydon. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and was broken down along a rural lane on route to see her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a short while ago after my old one, which I had had for over 25 years, inevitably died". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Somerset woman!

Our Fields of Expertise:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Somerset we have found a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not knowing how to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what's the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And most definitely do not start the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank may well result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations quite swiftly.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container placed at the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Haydon (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the normal issues which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Some examples:

Now I am certainly not very excited about doing the job on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had just come away from the family filled with a lovely roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow after he had put the wrong petrol in his Lexus. He was stationed in Haydon and so I was on scene soon. Just as I arrived at the rear of the car and started work he said to me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my attention on other things and failed to grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought about any kind of damage because of starting it?" I explained truth be told there probably should not be any kind of harm and that I would remove the fuel immediately. As expected I drained the fuel from the car and filled it with the correct fuel, and another satisfied motorist was able to carry on with their trip without any subsequent hassle. The gentleman could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what can make working on Sundays in Somerset just that tiny bit better for me personally!

This was most definitely what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It was rather uneventful so far, and Brian and I were loafing about looking at a couple of old papers. That was an unusual calm hour in Somerset. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that when my mobile inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the opposite end said: "I have just finished my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the BMW by mistake". I got him to let us know where the vehicle was located and we set off, getting to him in Haydon not as much as an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said thanks a lot for arriving so promptly. While we were returning home we spotted two girls on the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

Wrong Fuel Haydon - Haydon Wrong Fuel Assist

A man had stopped just near a street in Haydon. His Ford motor had stopped working and he had no clue what was faulty until eventually he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got zero rest the day before and that must have been the reason why.
