It was just before ten pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were resting talking over the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the 6th job to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Long Sutton and filled petrol in her diesel Hyundai lease car in error. The poor thing was rather agitated apparently, stating "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to move the car into a secure spot and, as it was just a few miles off from us, we could find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Lincolnshire done well in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lincolnshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly due to drivers being unsure of how to work with it (pay attention: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you discover youself to be in this situation don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations rather swiftly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Lincolnshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we can empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Long Sutton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up your automobile any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also fix any of the usual troubles that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
