Before long we had a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Fosdyke and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Fiat rental car in error. The poor lady was quite irritated apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And definitely don't start up the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel is likely to bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the back of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Fosdyke (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will deal with any of the standard issues which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.
