Petrol in Diesel Kirkby Stephen - Kirkby Stephen Wrong Fuel Drain

We advised him it was not a problem and rapidly had our technician with him to clear the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having taken away the contaminated fuel, he was soon back behind the wheel. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the chap who appeared to perform the fuel drain was really excellent - he did not make me feel an idiot."

Services We Give:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What to do in case you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? Adblue is definitely harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you started the car with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering disastrous and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And certainly don't switch on the car - not even to move it off the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel container at the rear of the garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Cumbria for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Kirkby Stephen (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Cumbria Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They can also handle any of the most common problems which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Kirkby Stephen - Kirkby Stephen Wrong Fuel Drain

A woman from Kirkby Stephen with her little ones in her diesel Mitsubishi had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the station. She called us crying and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and did not know what would happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that everything should be fine and that she would be ready to go soon. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our engineer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones on board."

Wrong Fuel Kirkby Stephen - Kirkby Stephen Wrong Fuel

I had a great afternoon fishing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I was en route to aid a young family who were vacationing in Kirkby Stephen. They stopped after putting diesel in their Kia, and were about half an hour away. I got there at their car and laughed as I listened to the woman telling off her partner for being so confused. "How could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this comes to pass frequently in Cumbria and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, however he in spite of everything had his ear bent by his better half. Poor guy. Anyhow, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted hasta la vista and wondered what my wife would say to me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
