Fuel Removal Sandhurst - Sandhurst Fuel Removal

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and we were on the way to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi in Sandhurst. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location in the TomTom and got there in less than an hour or so. I reached the destination and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I had only purchased it a week back after my old car, which I'd owned for more than thirty years, inevitably broke down". I completed the job and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Berkshire woman!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Berkshire we have encountered an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it asap. And absolutely never start up the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we should be able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in Berkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, provided that we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Sandhurst (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Berkshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your car any time you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill the car. They can also deal with the typical troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Fuel Removal Sandhurst - Sandhurst Fuel Drain

I had a fantastic day golfing on the weekend and felt pleased with myself the following day as I headed out to aid a new family vacationing in Sandhurst. They stopped after adding the wrong fuel into their Audi, and they were approximately half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her husband for being so daft. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing occurs regularly in Berkshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, even so he all the same got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and thought about what my missus would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I would personally never live it down!


Recent Fuel Drains in Sandhurst

Several stories:

We received a phone call from a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his Chevrolet in Sandhurst. He had broken down on the road. "I was pleased at how speedy you were in having an engineer out to assist me after I mistakenly filled my diesel car with unleaded. Thanks". Naturally we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the driver was scowling, but was grinning his face off afterwards.

Fuel Rescue Sandhurst - Sandhurst Wrong Fuel in Car

A man contacted us from his Peugeot after he had conked out on the hectic street. "I erroneously put unleaded in my diesel car and I soon found out all about it several miles along the road!" Fortuitously we were in a position to get out to him in a rather short time, considering the congestion, and he was before long back on the road.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Sandhurst - Sandhurst Wrong Fuel in Car

A person called us from Sandhurst saying he had piped petrol into his diesel Kia. "What a pain! How could I put the wrong fuel in my nice diesel car!" It took our engineer approximately fifty minutes to fully drain the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. He meticulously flushed the fuel system and after that put fresh fuel in the vehicle. The customer was delighted and it hadn't cost him dealer rates to get the task professionally completed.
