It was just before 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were relaxing talking over the golf, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Brotherhouse Bar and put petrol in her diesel Land Rover lease car by mistake. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could return to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and much less concerned. Another job in Lincolnshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we are encountering more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers not being aware of the right way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And certainly do not turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly simply.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Lincolnshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Brotherhouse Bar (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your automobile if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the typical problems that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Brotherhouse Bar - Brotherhouse Bar Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man called us from his home on a street in Brotherhouse Bar. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Toyota) is not running and is making dreadful sounds when I flip the ignition."
