It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! James and me were resting there commenting on the sports results, waiting for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Stonegravels and put petrol in her diesel Nissan rental car in error. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected area and, because it was only a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the woman right away. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. A job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Derbyshire we have found a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (please note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank may cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial premises in Derbyshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Run out of fuel in Stonegravels (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle.
