Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Derbyshire we have seen increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it right away. And most definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would likely have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol will bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Cartledge (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
