It was close to five pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Dan and I were resting there commenting on the rugby, prepared for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Weelsby and filled petrol in her diesel BMW rental car. She was very agitated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in.

Services We Give:

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have found increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to people not being totally sure how to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

So, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in fuel is likely to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases rather swiftly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in Lincolnshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Weelsby (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill your car. They will fix the normal problems that might go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Weelsby - Weelsby Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a fantastic day hiking during the weekend and felt delighted the following day as I set out to assist a new family on vacation in Weelsby. They had stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their Volkswagen, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and laughed while I listened to the wife telling her man off for being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this occurs frequently in Lincolnshire and that it is nothing to stress about, and yet he yet still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some right fuel. As they drove off I waved hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
