Fuel Removal Acton - Acton Vehicle Misfuel

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and we were en route to help an older lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Hyundai in Acton. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up on a rural lane along the way to see her family. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and drained the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I had only just got it a week ago when my previous one, which I owned for about 30 years, finally stopped working". I got the job done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a delightful Staffordshire woman!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we have discovered a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mainly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And definitely do not crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container lying in the rear of your garden with old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Staffordshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Acton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the usual issues which can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.


Vehicle Misfuel Acton - Acton Fuel Drain

A customer phoned us from his place on a close in Acton. He said, "My vehicle (a Honda) is not running and is producing dreadful sounds when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said after that he would be certain to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.

We provide you with fresh fuel at pump prices, and we will normally have your car done and in a position to set off in less than one hour. All contaminated fuel is disposed of by us through a licensed waste carrier and recycled.

We assured her that everything should be alright and that she would be in action very quickly.
