It was about 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Dan and I were seated commenting on the sports, waiting for the 6th call that day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Covenham St Mary and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental car. She was rather irritated apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from the office, we could reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off contented and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Lincolnshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lincolnshire we have noticed more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part due to motorists not being aware of the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And absolutely be careful not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations very swiftly.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel container sitting at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even numerous containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Covenham St Mary (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill the car. They will fix any of the standard issues which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Covenham St Mary - Covenham St Mary Fuel Drain

A guy had stopped just near a street in Covenham St Mary. His Dacia motor had ceased operating and he had no idea what was awry until he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten very little rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
