Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Spitalhill and filled petrol in a diesel Suzuki hire car by mistake. She was somewhat agitated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely do not crank the motor - not even to move it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol is likely to lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your premises with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Spitalhill (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile.

Wrong Fuel Drain Spitalhill - Spitalhill Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a perfect day cycling on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following day as I set off to help a new family who were away in Spitalhill. They had pulled over after filling petrol in their SEAT, and were approximately an hour away. I showed up at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the lady chastising her spouse for being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this comes to pass everyday in Derbyshire and that it is absolutely nothing to fret about, nevertheless he yet still had his ear bent. Unlucky boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I shouted bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!
