It was before 8 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were seated going over the recent golf, ready for the 8th job to come in. Before long we received the call from a lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Alkborough and put petrol in a diesel MINI lease car by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, since it was only a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to reach the customer right away. The bad fuel was removed and she could get back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and not so stressed.

Services Our Company Offers:

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

All around Lincolnshire we have noticed an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people not being totally sure the way to work with it (remember: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And absolutely take care not to start the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. Assuming you have started the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can certainly lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Alkborough (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up the car. They will handle any of the normal issues which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Alkborough - Alkborough Wrong Fuel Doctor

I'd had a perfect afternoon cycling on my day off and felt cheerful the next working day as I was on the way to assist a new couple away in Alkborough. They had stopped after filling petrol in their Porsche, and the car was roughly an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing happens continuously in Lincolnshire and that it's nothing to worry about, but he yet still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyway, I drained the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some right fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I waved so long and considered what my missus would ask me if ever I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
