We are willing to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue Contamination

In Bedfordshire we are noticing more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most definitely don't crank the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases quite easily.

Remember that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually 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 a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel Assist Arlesey - Arlesey Fuel Rescue

I'd had a terrific day golfing on my day off and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I headed out to help a young family who were on vacation in Arlesey. They'd pulled over after adding petrol into their SEAT, and they were roughly half an hour away. I got there at their position and smiled while I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for being so daft. "Just how could you even be able to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on continuously in Bedfordshire and that it is nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the very same mistake... I would personally never live it down!
