It was around 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were seated there discussing the recent football rankings, waiting for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Lutton Gowts and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Peugeot rental car by mistake. She was very distressed apparently, saying "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, because it was only a short distance off from our van, we could reach her right away. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain in Lincolnshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lincolnshire we have discovered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely never start the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a storage shed, if we can access it, we can drain it.
