It was before 7 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing talking over the recent sports results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Spridlington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Honda rental. She was rather affected it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a few miles away from our van, we could find the lady without delay. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and not so stressed. Another job in Lincolnshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competence :

Here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lincolnshire we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of drivers not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol may contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations fairly expediently.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Lincolnshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Spridlington (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to fix any of the typical issues which could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
