Fuel Rescue East Lydford - East Lydford Wrong Fuel

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a warm Wednesday and I was on the way to assist an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel Ford in East Lydford. I had been advised she had left the filling station and broken down on a rural road on route to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the car and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel as I had only acquired it several days back when my former car, which I had had for about twenty five years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Somerset woman!

AdBlue Contamination

In Somerset we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course take care not to switch on the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In cases where you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can potentially contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations very expediently.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container placed in the rear of your premises containing unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in East Lydford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Somerset Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home.

They can also take care of any of the most common issues that may accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
