It was after ten pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Makeney and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi rental car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this do happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure position and, because it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to arrive at her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and much less concerned.

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in case you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? It tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, particularly if you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel tank. Once the engine has been switched on the Adblue will undoubtedly be dragged into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And obviously take care not to start up the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel is likely to bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Derbyshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.
