It was around 5 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Draycott and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Smart hire car by mistake. She was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from our van, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at.

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Saturday and we were on my way to help an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel Mitsubishi in Draycott. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and stranded along a country road on the way to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "I'm getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I'd just acquired it a few days ago when my previous one, which I had used for about twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the job and she offered me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a precious Derbyshire woman!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Draycott - Draycott Wrong Fuel Doctor
I had a terrific afternoon golfing on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple who were on holiday in Draycott. They'd stopped after filling petrol into their BMW, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smirked as I listened to the gal chastising her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this occurs frequently in Derbyshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, however he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved farewell and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I would never live it down!

This is what exactly we do best.
AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Derbyshire we are discovering increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the vehicle.
So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Contact us in the event that you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can potentially lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations quite swiftly.
Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Wrong Fuel Assist Draycott - Draycott Vehicle Misfuel
A young lady from Draycott with a full car of little ones in her diesel Citroen had put £45 of petrol at the filling station. She phoned us crying and very distraught as she had never wrong fuelled previously and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the vehicle would be fine and that she would be back on the road in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the children in the back."
