The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Petrol in Diesel Woolavington - Woolavington Wrong Fuel Drain

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Wednesday and I was en route to help an older sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi in Woolavington. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded in a country road along the way to see her grandchildren. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there within an hour or so. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she said, "I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the car taking diesel as I'd only just bought it several days ago after my previous one, which I used for in excess of thirty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Somerset woman!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we are identifying progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers being unsure of how to to make use of (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely take care not to start up the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank in the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

We will come to fill up your automobile any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home.

They are also able to take care of the typical issues which can go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

We recently had a phone call about a driver who put the wrong fuel in his Volvo in Woolavington. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "I was pleasantly surprised at how quick you were in sending an engineer out to help me when I filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thanks". Of course we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank.

A driver who had unluckily put the wrong fuel in his diesel Fiat contacted us for a fuel drain at the Tesco petrol station in Woolavington. He thought it would be good to fill up before going on to the nearby caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol instead of diesel which probably wasn't a smart way to start to our getaway." It was absolutely no challenge whatsoever for our technical engineer to go along and carry out the fuel drain. We hope everyone had a good holiday break.
