Wrong Fuel Drain Lyme Regis - Lyme Regis Fuel Drain

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was on my way to help an older lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel Ford in Lyme Regis. She informed us that she had left the filling station and stranded in a country road along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I got to the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was working she said, "I have been becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I had only just acquired it a few days ago right after my other car, which I used for in excess of twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she offered me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a precious Dorset lady!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Dorset we have found an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to handle different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Dorset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Lyme Regis (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Dorset Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to deal with any of the standard issues which could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise on the drive of a spectacular residence in Lyme Regis not so long ago.

Fuel Removal Lyme Regis - Lyme Regis Petrol in Diesel

A motorist driving in Lyme Regis called us shortly after she managed to get her misfueled car to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen and, like plenty before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill her car with diesel and it'd be alright. The car was chugging and then it stopped when she arrived at the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved within an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm really glad you fixed my car."

Wrong Fuel Assist Lyme Regis - Lyme Regis Fuel Drain

A guy had broken down just off a road in Lyme Regis. His MG motor had ceased running and he had no clue what was the problem till he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten no rest the night before and that must have been the reason why.
