Wrong Fuel in Car Newtown - Newtown Fuel Removal

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a bright Monday and we were on my way to assist an elder woman who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Fiat in Newtown. She told us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater road en route to see her family. I popped her location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she said, "I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel since I had just purchased it a week back when my previous one, which I had used for in excess of 25 years, eventually broke down". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a pleasant Staffordshire woman!

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Staffordshire we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously be careful not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Staffordshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Newtown (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They will fix any of the normal problems that could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Newtown - Newtown Wrong Fuel

A gentleman had stopped just near a road in Newtown. His Porsche motor had stopped working and he'd no idea what was wrong until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.

What follows are responses and examples of wrong fuel removal we have completed in Newtown:

It's no fun being stranded in a car filled with the wrong fuel halfway down the street. We had a customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (Honda) in Newtown endured precisely that issue: "As you know I accidently put petrol in my diesel car . I was so concerned about the wrong fuel in my car that I was in tears. Fortunately I shouldn't have concerned myself simply because you were excellent in draining and cleaning my car."

Fuel Drain Newtown - Newtown Vehicle Misfuel

This was the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was stirring. It had been pretty uneventful so far, and me and Mark were relaxing looking through a few old articles. That was a rare quiet moment in Staffordshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end explained: "I've ended my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel Kia by mistake". I told him to inform us where the vehicle was and we headed out, ending up in Newtown under 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car and he thanked us for coming out so promptly. While we were going back to base we found two young women at the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we got out to change it, to their elation.

Fuel Rescue Newtown - Newtown Wrong Fuel Drain

A man contacted us from his house on a road in Newtown. He said, "My car (a Mitsubishi) is not starting up and is creating awful sounds when I flip the key." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would solve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We got there promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once again with untainted Diesel. He said he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up over the wrong fuel but to have it drained right away.
