It was just before 10 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Mark and me were relaxing there going over the rugby rankings, waiting for the 6th call to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in York and put petrol in her diesel Lexus rental by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few miles from us, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying at.

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made out of a mixture of urea and ionized water.Adblue is definitely disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in your fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be pulled into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, leading to disastrous and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to several private and business premises in Lancashire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.
