Vehicle Misfuel Oban - Oban Wrong Fuel in Car

She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location punched into the Satnav and was with her in less than an hour. I arrived at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car.

I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Argyll and Bute lady!

Vehicle Misfuel Oban - Oban Fuel Drain

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I set off to assist a new couple who were vacationing in Oban. They had pulled over after putting petrol in their Audi, and were about half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the wife berating her spouse for actually being so confused. "How could you actually find a way to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to explain that this happens on daily basis in Argyll and Bute and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted good bye and wondered what my wife would say to me if I made the exact same error... I would never hear the end of it!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All around Argyll and Bute we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially caused by people being unsure of the way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Any time you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the practical know-how and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can easily trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances rather simply.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Argyll and Bute to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.
