Petrol in your diesel car in Hardstoft? You've come to the right place. We are here to aid you in this hour of need and get you moving once more with our expert fuel drain services.

It was just after 8 pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated going over the sports results, prepared for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we had a call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Hardstoft and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Vauxhall hire car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things sadly happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and less worried. A misfuel correction in Derbyshire done well in my mind!

Our Services:

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue Contamination

What you should do in case you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in your diesel tank. As soon as the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into your fuel lines and will promptly begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Any time you get in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical competence and working experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can easily result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and business premises in Derbyshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Hardstoft (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your vehicle. They can also handle any of the common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Hardstoft - Hardstoft Vehicle Misfuel

A man had broken down just off a street in Hardstoft. His Toyota engine had ceased running and he had no idea what was the problem until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can't believe that I didn't detect that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had gotten very little sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
