A motorist stopped on a road in Frankley had to have a fuel drain about a few weeks ago. His Suzuki was stopped roadside after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he phoned us but a little concerned to move his car out of the road since he was causing some congestion. We got to him in a quarter-hour since our drainer was in neighbouring Frankley and had done his previous job. He said, "I just can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and broke down right here! My car was coughing I simply had to stop and after that it just conked."

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Birmingham we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people being unsure of how to use it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And absolutely don't switch on the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Birmingham to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Frankley (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a full Birmingham Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle the usual problems which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Frankley - Frankley Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a terrific day fishing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied the next day as I headed out to aid a new family who were vacationing in Frankley. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their Ford, and were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the wife telling her man off for actually being so confused. "Just how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem goes on continuously in Birmingham and that it's actually absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unlucky chap. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I would never live it down!
