Fuel Drain Barlborough - Barlborough Wrong Fuel Drain

What a great night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and I was on the way to help an older sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot in Barlborough. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded along a rural road on route to see her family. I plugged her location into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting relatively forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd just purchased it a couple of days back right after my other car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually died on me". I got the job completed and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. What a precious Derbyshire woman!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Derbyshire we are finding a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to take care of every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will likely result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Barlborough (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill your car or truck. They will fix the normal issues which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
