Petrol in Diesel Hurst Wickham - Hurst Wickham Wrong Fuel Drain

Just had a quality night's sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Monday and we were off to assist an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel Ford in Hurst Wickham. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a country road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour. I got to the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car using diesel seeing that I'd just got it a few days ago right after my previous car, which I had for in excess of 30 years, eventually stopped working". I completed the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful West Sussex lady!

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout West Sussex we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by drivers not understanding the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And definitely never crank the car - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is going to lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in West Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Hurst Wickham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill your car. They can also handle any of the common problems which may go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.
