It was before 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were sitting discussing the weekend's sports results, ready for the next telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Belton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mazda rental. The unfortunate thing was very troubled apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the car to a safe area and, because it was just a few miles off from us, we could find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to get back to the hotel she was living in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and much less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Lincolnshire well done in my mind!

Wrong Fuel SoS' skilled technical engineers are on call 24 hours a day. Simply call up our emergency number and someone will come out, flush the incorrect fuel and get you quickly back on your way.

Our Areas of Experience :

Listed here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Lincolnshire we are encountering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can potentially contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases pretty easily.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container sitting at the rear of your garden full of aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Lincolnshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Belton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your vehicle. They will fix any of the most common troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
