It was just after six pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the sports, waiting around for the next call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Wrangle Lowgate and put petrol in a diesel Nissan hire car. She was pretty irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably often happen.

Services We Give:

Here are the top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Lincolnshire we have discovered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent caused by motorists being unsure of how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the automobile.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Call us if it turns out you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily take care of different types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel is going to trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances rather easily.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Lincolnshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, providing we are able to get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Wrangle Lowgate (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the standard issues which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
