Wrong Fuel in Car Southborough, Bromley
Wrong Fuel in Car Southborough - Southborough Wrong Fuel in Car
What a quality night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a bright Sunday and we were on the way to assist an elder lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel Volkswagen in Southborough. She told us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up along a backwater road on route to visit her family. I got the location punched in the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel as I had just bought it a couple of days ago because my other one, which I'd used for in excess of twenty five years, finally died on me". I got the job completed and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Bromley lady!

AdBlue In your Fuel
Throughout Bromley we have noticed more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists not being aware of the way to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.
So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously don't start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank is going to lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases pretty expediently.
Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
If there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of the garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Bromley to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

A woman from Southborough with her little ones in her diesel Citroen had put £20 of petrol at the Shell station. She contacted us crying and extremely worried as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and didn't know what could happen to her car because of it. We told her that the vehicle should be fine and that she would be back on the road very quickly. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our technician got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the children in the back."
