Wrong Fuel Assist Downhead - Downhead Petrol in Diesel

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Wednesday and we were on my way to help an elder lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault in Downhead. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a backwater road along the way to see her family. I got her location punched into the TomTom and was with her inside an hour or so. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd just acquired it a week ago because my old one, which I had for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she gave me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Somerset woman!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Somerset we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely never crank the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a garage, if we can reach it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Downhead (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Somerset Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your automobile. They can also handle any of the usual troubles that might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

A customer from Downhead with her little ones in her diesel Kia had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She called us weeping and extremely distraught as she had never wrong fuelled and did not know what would happen to her car . We assured her that all would be ok and that she would be in action in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't ruined.
