It was after eight pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's footy results, waiting for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Stanley and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes lease car in error. She was fairly affected apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we could get to the woman fairly quickly.

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Derbyshire we have identified a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not understanding the right way to use it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to take care of all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances fairly easily.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Derbyshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.
