Our Fields of Specialties:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Lincolnshire we are finding a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not understanding how to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly don't turn over the car - not even to shift it to a parking spot. If you have started the vehicle you will likely need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to produce idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations fairly simply.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking spot we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container placed in the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial properties in Lincolnshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, providing we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in North Hykeham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up your car. They will take care of the common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

We recently received a phone call about a driver who had put the wrong fuel in his Mazda in North Hykeham. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "It was amazing how fast you were in sending someone out to assist me after I stupidly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you".

He thought it would be good to top up before going on to the nearby holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel and it wasn't a good way to start to our holiday." It was absolutely no challenge in any way for our fuel drainer to go along and perform the fuel drain.

He admitted that he put petrol in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, carried out the drain and filled it up once again with fresh Diesel.
