Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Over Burrows

If you've put the wrong fuel in your car in Over Burrows (wrong fuel Over Burrows) we are the company you need to phone. We operate throughout the whole of the Over Burrows region and all surrounding parts.

It was just before five pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring! James and me were seated there commenting on the footy rankings, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Over Burrows and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mitsubishi rental car by mistake. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this sadly do happen. She was able to move the car into a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could find the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off relaxed and much less stressed. A fuel drain in Derbyshire done well in my mind!

Our Services:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Whenever you get in this scenario do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the practical skills and experience to get you back on your way promptly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases very simply.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container lying at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Over Burrows (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill your vehicle. They will take care of any of the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
