Incorrect fuel in your car in Cawkwell? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this situatiuon and get you running again with our professional fuel drain service.

It was around seven pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking about the weekend's sports results, waiting for the next telephone call to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Cawkwell and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota hire car by mistake. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe area and, as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could reach the woman right away. The bad fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and much less anxious. Yet another job in Lincolnshire done well in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have discovered increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously never crank the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol can produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances very expediently.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden full of aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Lincolnshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Cawkwell (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill your car. They will fix the normal troubles that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Cawkwell - Cawkwell Fuel Drain

A guy had conked out near a road in Cawkwell. His Kia engine had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was the problem until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to get a fuel drain and that's when he told us: "I cannot believe that I did not comprehend that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that could have been the reason why.
