Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Derbyshire we have identified a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by people being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality 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, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it right away. And obviously never start the engine - not even to shift it off of the pump. In cases where you have started the car you may very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases very simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Derbyshire to deal with removing 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 container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Uppertown (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home.

They will be able to deal with the standard troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Uppertown - Uppertown Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a perfect evening cycling during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the next day as I set off to aid a new family on vacation in Uppertown. They broken down after inserting diesel into their Mercedes, and were around half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her husband off for being so confused. "How could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this problem comes to pass all the time in Derbyshire and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I drained all of the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted good bye and considered what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
