Wrong Fuel in Car Shurnock, Worcestershire
Fuel Removal Shurnock - Shurnock Wrong Fuel in Car
What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Tuesday and I was on the way to assist an older sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel Chevrolet in Shurnock. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and was broken down in a rural road on the way to visit her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the TomTom and got there inside 60 minutes. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was working she explained, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I had just bought it a few days back because my other car, which I'd used for about thirty years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. Such a pleasant Worcestershire lady!

Our Areas of Competence :
Helping you get back on the road is our primary goal.
AdBlue In your Fuel
In Worcestershire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists not being aware of how to work with it (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the vehicle.
So, what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you would very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel may lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases quite swiftly.
Take note however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel container laying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Worcestershire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.
Re-Fueling Assistance
Run out of fuel in Shurnock (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and refill the car. They can also deal with the common troubles which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries because of over-cranking.

No one likes being stuck in a automobile full of the wrong fuel halfway down the road.

He had it drained and had it functioning once more within just half an hour. Highly recommended."
Fuel Removal Shurnock - Shurnock Vehicle Misfuel
This was what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around sunrise and almost noone was stirring. It had been rather quiet thus far, and Ray and I were loafing looking at some old papers. This was an unusual calm time in Worcestershire. It was in fact so quiet that the moment the phone finally rang it made me jump! The person said: "I have just finished my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi in error". I got him to inform us where he was and we set off, getting to him in Shurnock under an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he said thank you for showing up so quickly. As we were coming back home we spotted two girls on the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. So we pulled up and helped them change it, to their delight.
Vehicle Misfuel Shurnock - Shurnock Fuel Drain
A week ago a young man telephoned us just after his MG cut out on a road in Shurnock. He had by accident put the wrong fuel in the diesel car and got so far as the road before needing to halt. It was actually in the early hours of the morning and our technical engineer, who resides close by, got to him in less than 10 minutes. We managed to take out the wrong fuel and put clean diesel back into the car. "Thank you for your immediate response, especially at 2 a.m., I truly appreciate it."
