It was about 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were relaxing there discussing the recent tennis results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Alvaston and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Nissan rental car by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, stating "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the woman fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the motel she was living at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and not so concerned. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my books!

Listed here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Derbyshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being totally sure how to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Whenever you find yourself in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our experts possess the technical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel may well result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container lying in the rear of the garden with aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Derbyshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, as long as we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Alvaston (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They can also take care of the usual issues which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Alvaston - Alvaston Wrong Fuel Doctor

A motorist had stopped near a road in Alvaston. His Vauxhall car had stopped working and he had no idea what was the problem until he realised he had put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that is when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He said that he had got absolutely no rest the evening before and that must have been the reason why.
