It was just before 7 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were relaxing there going over the recent tennis, prepared for the next telephone call to arrive. Finally we had the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lullington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Smart lease car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, because it was no more than a few miles from our van, we could find the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Derbyshire we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to one another on the car.

Well, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you get in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised know-how and experience to get you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations fairly simply.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Derbyshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Lullington (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill the car. They can also fix any of the usual troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
