A rather alarmed driver called us from the BP filling station at Cumbria to advise us that he had put unleaded in to his diesel Porsche; he wasn't totally certain how he'd done it.

Having extracted the contaminated fuel, he was almost immediately back behind the wheel. He told us; "I am truly shocked I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the gentleman who came out to do the fuel drain was genuinely nice - he didn't make me look like an idiot."

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Cumbria we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not understanding the way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to each other on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In case you did start the car you may very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations pretty expediently.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container at the back of your premises with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Cumbria to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Wigton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Cumbria Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your automobile. They will deal with any of the standard problems which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Assist Wigton - Wigton Wrong Fuel in Car

A guy had conked out just near a road in Wigton. His Citroen motor had ceased operating and he had no idea what was the problem until eventually he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got very little rest the evening before and that must have been why.

We provide you with fresh fuel at pump rates, and we can in most cases have your vehicle cleaned out and ready to set off in less than one hour. All contaminated fuel is disposed of by us through a licensed waste company and recycled. No matter where you are located in the UK, Wrong Fuel SoS has the ability to get a vehicle out to you to perform a complete fuel drain on your car.


Recent Fuel Drains in Wigton

Reports from our own Wigton team:

We recently got a phone call about a businessman who had put the wrong fuel in his Mazda in Wigton. He had broken down on the street. "It was incredible how rapid you people were in sending a fuel drainer out to assist me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. I'm very grateful". It goes without saying that we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after draining the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the engineer said the customer was raging, but was pleased after the fuel drain.

Fuel Rescue Wigton - Wigton Fuel Drain

A gentleman who had sadly put the wrong fuel in his diesel Fiat contacted us for a fuel drain at the BP petrol station in Wigton. He had decided to top up before going on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol instead of diesel which wasn't a good start to our getaway." It was certainly no challenge at all for our engineer to go and carry out the fuel drain. We hope they had a good getaway.

Petrol in Diesel Wigton - Wigton Wrong Fuel

I'd had a great afternoon cycling during my day off and was feeling delighted the following day as I was on the way to help a young couple who were away in Wigton. They conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their MG, and were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled as I heard to the girl telling her man off for being so foolish. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this takes place quite frequently in Cumbria and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky guy. In any case, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I waved farewell and pondered on what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the exact same blunder... I'd never live it down!
