It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and me were seated commenting on the sports results, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Potter Hill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Lexus lease car. The poor lady was very agitated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from us, we could get to the customer right away. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Leicestershire well done in my opinion!

Services We Provide:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed in case you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made out of a mixture of deionized water and urea.Adblue is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, particularly in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, triggering serious and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And most definitely take care not to start up the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations very quickly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few private and industrial premises in Leicestershire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
