Our Areas of Competency :

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Argyll and Bute we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained right away. And obviously never start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can certainly produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial properties in Argyll and Bute for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, as long as we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Helensburgh (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Argyll and Bute Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will take care of the normal problems which may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Helensburgh - Helensburgh Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a terrific day golfing during my holiday and was feeling delighted the following day as I headed out to aid a young family who were on vacation in Helensburgh. They conked out after adding diesel into their Kia, and were about half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smiled as I heard to the gal telling her man off for being so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass on a regular basis in Argyll and Bute and that it's nothing to get worried about, however he yet still had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would do to me if I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Helensburgh

A few of the typical things we get from our engineers in Helensburgh:

Now I am not excessively hot for doing work weekends, and the other day was the same. I had only just come away from the wife and kids filled with a lovely dinner cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to assist a fellow after he filled the wrong petrol in his Smart. He was somewhere in Helensburgh thus I arrived on scene quickly. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I incredibly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted some damage simply by running it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be any harm and also that I would personally drain the contaminated fuel at once for him. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and so yet another delighted client was able to carry on with their journey without fuss. He could not stop thanking me, and that is what makes carrying out work on weekends in Argyll and Bute a tiny bit easier for me personally!

Wrong Fuel Drain Helensburgh - Helensburgh Wrong Fuel Assist

This was an unsociable time to be up. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Mark were relaxing perusing some old articles. It was an uncommon peaceful moment in Argyll and Bute. It was in fact so calm that when the phone finally rang I jumped! The person explained: "I have concluded my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a Volvo". I got him to tell us where exactly he was and we set off, reaching him in Helensburgh less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he said thank you for getting there so quickly. As we were heading back home we found two young women at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their elation.
