It was just after 9 pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were resting there commenting on the recent footy, ready for the sixth fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we got a call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Harlesthorpe and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Jaguar hire car by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was only a short distance away from where we were, we were able to reach the customer almost instantly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and not so worried. A job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise:

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Derbyshire we are noticing an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily handle every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel may cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances very simply.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
