It was before 9 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were resting there talking about the weekend's rugby rankings, waiting around for the seventh job that day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Langley Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus rental in error. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to find the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and a lot less concerned. One more job in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Derbyshire we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. If you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting in the back of your premises with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Langley Green (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your automobile in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to refill your car. They will be able to fix any of the usual troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

We managed to remove the wrong fuel and put clean diesel once again into the vehicle. "Thank you for your prompt response, especially at 5 a.m., I genuinely am grateful for it."
