It was after 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there discussing the recent sports rankings, ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Fenton and put petrol in her diesel Suzuki lease car in error. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a secure area and, as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we could get to the customer swiftly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Lincolnshire done well in my books!

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Lincolnshire we have seen increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being totally sure how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously don't crank the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In case you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir sitting at the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and industrial properties in Lincolnshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Fenton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your car in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the normal troubles which might come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
