Wrong Fuel Doctor Rickinghall - Rickinghall Fuel Rescue

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Monday and I was on the way to assist an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel MINI in Rickinghall. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded in a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I punched her location straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I had only just purchased it several days ago when my other car, which I had for over twenty years, eventually died". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Suffolk woman!

Our Areas of Competency :

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Suffolk we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to people not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And absolutely don't switch on the car - not even to move it off the pump. In case you did start the car you will probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations very swiftly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in Suffolk for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Rickinghall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your car. They will fix the most common troubles that may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Rickinghall - Rickinghall Wrong Fuel

This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2am and nobody was around. It had been rather quiet until now, and me and Ray were sitting about reading through a number of old articles. That was an uncommon tranquil time in Suffolk. It was indeed so tranquil that when the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The person on the phone stated: "I have only just concluded my night shift and foolishly filled petrol in the diesel Kia by mistake". We instructed him to tell us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, getting to him in Rickinghall under an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thanks a lot for getting there so fast. While we were returning to the office we spotted two women at the side of the road who appeared to have a flat. So we got out to change it, to their elation.
