It was just after 10 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased raining! James and I were resting there talking about the sports, ready for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Hope and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai hire car in error. The poor thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly.

Listed here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Wrexham we have identified a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you will probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can easily result in idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Wrexham to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Fuel Rescue Hope - Hope Fuel Rescue

I appreciated a great day cycling on my day off and was feeling cheerful the next day as I set off to assist a new couple on holiday in Hope. They'd broken down after filling diesel in their Renault, and the car was about an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so confused. "How could you possibly find a way to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing happens regularly in Wrexham and that it's nothing at all to fret about, nonetheless he all the same got his ear bent by his wife. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
