Petrol in your diesel car in Dalbury? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this time of need and get you going once again with our professional fuel drain services.

It was close to 9 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were resting there commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Dalbury and filled petrol in her diesel Vauxhall rental car. The unfortunate thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to fret, also that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was only a few miles away from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my books!

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

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in the event that you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a blend of high-purity deionized water and urea.It tends to be harmful to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into the fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, causing disastrous and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Call us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel is going to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances very quickly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
