Wrong Fuel Assist Dalbeattie - Dalbeattie Fuel Rescue

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Sunday and I was on my way to help an old lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota in Dalbeattie. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down in a country lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged straight into the TomTom and arrived within 60 minutes. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she said, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only got it a few days ago right after my former one, which I'd used for about twenty five years, eventually died". I finished the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a pleasant Dumfries and Galloway woman!

Services We Offer:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Dumfries and Galloway we are discovering a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Call us if you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it.
