It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were resting going over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Boarsgreave and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Lexus lease car in error. The poor lady was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things regrettably happen. She managed to move the car to a safe spot and, because it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. A fuel drain in Lancashire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Here are the top services we provide to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lancashire we have discovered a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not being aware of the way to to make use of (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And obviously never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases rather simply.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business properties in Lancashire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of fuel in Boarsgreave (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come 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.
