It was about 9 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were resting there talking about the footy rankings, ready for the seventh job for the day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Brimington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Toyota rental in error. The poor lady was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was just a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my books!

Here are the top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Derbyshire we are identifying an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most certainly do not start the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may most likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can drain it.
