It was around ten pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were seated there talking about the sports rankings, at the ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Over Burrows and filled petrol in a diesel Mazda lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure space and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from the office, we could reach the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

Our Fields of Specialties:

We are ready to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have noticed an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially caused by drivers not being aware of how to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and have the ability to handle all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel will contribute to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances rather quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and commercial properties in Derbyshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Over Burrows (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to refill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They are also able to handle any of the normal troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Over Burrows - Over Burrows Vehicle Misfuel

I had a wonderful afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt contented with myself the next day as I set off to help a new family who were away in Over Burrows. They pulled over after filling diesel into their Peugeot, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and smirked as I heard to the wife chastising her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this happens frequently in Derbyshire and that it is nothing at all to stress about, even so he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove off I mouthed good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
