Wrong Fuel Doctor Gomshall - Gomshall Vehicle Misfuel

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and we were off to assist an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Lexus in Gomshall. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station and pulled up along a backwater lane on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only got it several days back right after my other one, which I had owned for more than thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a pleasant Surrey woman!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Surrey we are identifying increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will trigger idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances very simply.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have an old fuel container at the rear of your garden with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial premises in Surrey to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Gomshall (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Surrey Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will be able to handle the typical troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Fuel Removal Gomshall - Gomshall Wrong Fuel Assist

I appreciated a perfect afternoon cycling during the weekend and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I set off to assist a young couple on vacation in Gomshall. They had pulled over after filling diesel in their Volkswagen, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place regularly in Surrey and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, however he yet still got an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!

We told her that the vehicle would be okay and that she would be back on the road quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly cheered up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children in the back."
