Wrong Fuel Prestwood - Prestwood Wrong Fuel Doctor

Below are our top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Staffordshire we have encountered increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In case you have started the car you will very likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations quite simply.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank sitting in the rear of your garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Staffordshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Prestwood (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Staffordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They are also able to handle the typical issues which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car Prestwood - Prestwood Fuel Rescue

A person contacted us from his place on a road in Prestwood. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not running and is making awful sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would fix the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up again with clean Diesel. He said he would be absolutely sure to educate people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out promptly.

Recent Fuel Drains in Prestwood

Reports from our Prestwood mechanics:

I am certainly not excessively excited about doing work Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids after having a lovely lunch made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to assist a man after he put the incorrect petrol in his Citroen. He was located in Prestwood so it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on other things and did not perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on any damage as a result of starting it?" I explained that generally there should not be any kind of harm and that also I'd get the wrong fuel drained at once. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and thus one more satisfied motorist had the ability to continue on their ride without the need for difficulty. He did not stop thanking me, and that is what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Staffordshire a little easier to me!

Wrong Fuel Assist Prestwood - Prestwood Fuel Rescue

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 3:30am and noone was stirring. It had been quite dead up to now, and Paul and I were loafing about looking at a few old papers. It was an uncommon quiet moment in Staffordshire. It was in fact that quiet that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The voice on the opposite end explained: "I have only just completed my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my diesel Chevrolet by mistake". I instructed him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Prestwood not as much as half an hour later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us for arriving so promptly. While we were coming back home we noticed two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their elation.

Wrong Fuel Prestwood - Prestwood Petrol in Diesel

A couple weeks ago a gentleman telephoned us right after his Mazda broke down on a street in Prestwood. He had inadvertently put petrol in the diesel motor and got as far as the street before being forced to halt. It was actually early in the day and our technician, who lives not far away, got to him in approximately 10 minutes. We managed to drain the incorrect fuel and put fresh diesel once again in the car. "Sincere kudos to you for your timely response, particularly at 6 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
