It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting there commenting on the footy results, waiting for the seventh telephone call to come in. Inevitably we got a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Crawford and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat lease car by mistake. She was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably do happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from our van, we were able to get to the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lancashire we have noticed a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

Well, what is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may well contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting at the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in Lancashire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

We are able to get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home.
