It was after 10 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were resting going over the football results, prepared for the next fuel drain to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling station in Kirton Holme and filled petrol in her diesel Hyundai rental. She was quite affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected area and, since it was only a short distance off from our van, we could reach the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off calm and not so concerned. Another job in Lincolnshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties: Services We Offer:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lincolnshire we have seen a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of people not knowing how to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel can easily produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases quite expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying at the back of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Kirton Holme (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a comprehensive Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill your automobile. They can also handle the usual problems that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.
