It was about ten pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were sitting discussing the rugby rankings, prepared for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in Lightwood and put petrol in a diesel MG lease car in error. The poor lady was very agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, and that such things sadly happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we could get to the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my books!

Services We Provide:
Here are the top services we offer to our customers.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All around Derbyshire we have identified progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mostly a result of people not knowing the way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the automobile.
Well, what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank may well bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances rather quickly.
Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
Waste Fuel Removal
Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your automobile.
