It was after 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not given up on raining! Ray and me were resting commenting on the weekend's football rankings, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Catterall and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat hire car by mistake. She was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe position and, as it was only a few miles from where we were, we could get to the customer right away. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was living at.

A woman had come to a stop on a road, Catterall just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was sobbing and truly troubled as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we attempted to calm her as well as we could, reassuring her that it would be ok. When we arrived with her she was not annoyed any more and was rather interested in watching our engineer perform the fuel drain on her Dacia. Later on she said: "My car is akin to my child, I only just paid for it so it especially concerned me that I had put such a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm glad that it was easily fixable."

Do you or your employees often misfuel your car? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Lancashire we are discovering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially thanks to drivers being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank lying at the back of your garden with out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Lancashire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several drums in a garage, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

This was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It was quite uneventful until now, and me and Ryan were sitting about looking through some old papers. That was an uncommon calm moment in Lancashire. It was indeed so relaxing that the instant the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist said: "I only just completed my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in the diesel Mitsubishi by mistake". We asked him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, ending up in Catterall less than half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the engine and he said thanks a lot for coming so fast. As we were heading back to base we saw two young women at the side of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out to help them change it, to their delight.
