It was close to six pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on pouring!

Finally we got the call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Burgh on Bain and filled petrol in her diesel MG rental car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to worry, plus that things like this can happen. She was able to relocate the car into a safe area and, because it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer almost instantly.

Our Fields of Specialties:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lincolnshire we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a consequence of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained asap. And most certainly never start up the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases very swiftly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Lincolnshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.
