It was close to six pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and I were sitting talking about the recent footy rankings, waiting around for the next call to come in. Finally we got a call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Chapel House and filled petrol in her diesel Peugeot rental by mistake. The poor lady was rather troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this can happen. She managed to get the car to a protected position and, seeing as it was only a few miles from us, we could find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. A fuel drain in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a blend of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It can be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, leading to catastrophic and expensive damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to address in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances pretty easily.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a car parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in Lancashire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Chapel House (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a complete Lancashire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up 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 your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up the car. They are also able to handle the common issues which could go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
