Wrong Fuel in Car Dalbeattie - Dalbeattie Wrong Fuel Drain

What a great night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Sunday and I was on my way to assist an elder lovely lady after she had put petrol in her diesel BMW in Dalbeattie. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down along a backwater lane en route to see her family. I got the location punched in the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "Now I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a week back because my former car, which I had had for over thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a pleasant Dumfries and Galloway lady!

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Dumfries and Galloway we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing how to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In case you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol may trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be wholly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying in the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Dumfries and Galloway to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

We're able to come to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dalbeattie - Dalbeattie Fuel Removal

I had appreciated a great afternoon hiking on my off day and felt satisfied the following working day as I set off to help a new family vacationing in Dalbeattie. They'd pulled over after adding petrol into their Porsche, and were around an hour away. I arrived at their car and smiled as I listened to the lady telling off her partner for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you possibly find a way to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass on daily basis in Dumfries and Galloway and that it's nothing at all to fret about, and yet he in spite of everything had an ear bashing by his missus. Poor lad. At any rate, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I waved goodbye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I'd never live it down!

I'm certainly not very hot for doing the job weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same.

He was stationed in Dalbeattie therefore I arrived there rapidly. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and got out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I incredibly had my thoughts on stuff and did not realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I created any kind of damage by simply running it?" I stated that there shouldn't be any problems and also I'd personally get the fuel drained as quickly as possible. Obviously I drained the fuel from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another content client had the ability to continue his travelling with no hassle. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this makes working on Sundays in Dumfries and Galloway just that small bit less painful in my opinion!
