It was about 7 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and me were sitting going over the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Upper End and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was quite affected it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off calm and not so stressed. One more misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are encountering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as soon as possible. And definitely don't turn over the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank at the back of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial properties in Derbyshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Upper End (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They can also fix the most common troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
