Wrong Fuel Drain Marchington - Marchington Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a fantastic afternoon hiking on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following working day as I set off to aid a young couple who were holidaying in Marchington. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their Kia, and the car was roughly an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed as I listened to the girl berating her man for being so confused. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this situation happens constantly in Staffordshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be anxious about, even so he yet still had an earful by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some right fuel. As they drove off I shouted goodbye and pondered on what my wife would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Staffordshire we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it at once. And certainly do not start the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. If you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol will likely produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases rather simply.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Staffordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

We reassured her that the car would be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all.
