We are the people for your needs!

It was about eight pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were sitting discussing the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got a call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Hayfield and filled petrol in a diesel Chevrolet rental. The poor thing was very distressed it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing as it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive off satisfied and less concerned. Yet another job in Derbyshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Derbyshire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of drivers not being aware of how to work with it (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and have the ability to fix every type of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations quite quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Derbyshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, providing we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Hayfield (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill up the car. They are also able to take care of the common issues which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Hayfield - Hayfield Fuel Drain

A gentleman called us from Hayfield saying he pumped the wrong fuel in to his diesel Fiat. "I can't believe it! I can't believe I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!" It took our fuel drainer around fifty minutes to fully drain the wrong fuel out of the car. He completely flushed the fuel system and after that put fresh diesel in the car. The customer was very pleased and it hadn't cost him car dealership rates to have the work properly done.
