Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Northamptonshire we have found an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the car.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations pretty quickly.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in Northamptonshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Cottesbrooke (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full Northamptonshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill the car. They will take care of any of the normal issues that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Cottesbrooke - Cottesbrooke Fuel Rescue

I'd had a wonderful evening cycling during my afternoon off and was feeling contented the following working day as I set out to assist a new family holidaying in Cottesbrooke. They'd conked out after filling diesel in their Mazda, and they were around half an hour away. I got there at their car and smirked as I heard to the woman chastising her hubby for actually being so silly. "How could you possibly find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this takes place all the time in Northamptonshire and that it's nothing to get worried about, and yet he all the same got an earful by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. As they drove away I mouthed good bye and thought about what her indoors would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

Recent Fuel Drains in Cottesbrooke

Below are comments and illustrations of wrong fuel removal we've carried out in Cottesbrooke:

No one likes conking out in a car full of the incorrect fuel halfway down the road. Recently a customer who put petrol in his diesel car (Citroen) in Cottesbrooke ran into precisely that type of nightmare: "Your fuel drain guy moved my vehicle from the live lane. He fixed it and had it running in less than a half hour. Couldn't recommend you more."

Fuel Rescue Cottesbrooke - Cottesbrooke Petrol in Diesel

A man called us from his Mitsubishi where he had broken down on the busy street. "I incorrectly put petrol in my diesel car and I soon realised it a number of miles down the road!" Thankfully we were in a position to have an engineer out to him in a reasonably short time, bearing in mind the congestion, and he was shortly back behind the wheel.

Wrong Fuel Drain Cottesbrooke - Cottesbrooke Wrong Fuel

I appreciated a perfect day cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a new family who were away in Cottesbrooke. They had stopped after filling diesel into their Volvo, and were around an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and laughed while I heard to the woman telling off her husband for being so confused. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs on a regular basis in Northamptonshire and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same had an ear bashing. Poor boy. In any case, I removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the right fuel. As they drove down the road I waved hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would say to me if I made the very same error... I would personally never live it down!
