It was about 5 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and me were resting there commenting on the weekend's sports results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Duncote and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from us, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got very wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. A job in Northamptonshire well done in my opinion!

Fuel Rescue Duncote - Duncote Fuel Rescue
Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and we were on my way to help an elder woman after she had put petrol in her diesel Jaguar in Duncote. I'd been told she drove away from the petrol station and was broken down in a backwater lane en route to visit her family. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I had only got it a few days back after my other one, which I'd used for more than twenty five years, finally died on me". I finished the drain and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a lovely Northamptonshire lady!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Northamptonshire we are noticing increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.
Well, what's the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it right away. And certainly do not crank the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will very likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very easily.
Be aware however that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we can reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel.

Wrong Fuel Duncote - Duncote Vehicle Misfuel
I enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling during my day off and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I set out to help a young couple away in Duncote. They'd conked out after adding the wrong fuel in their Dacia, and the car was close to half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed as I heard to the woman telling off her partner for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this problem happens quite frequently in Northamptonshire and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, nevertheless he still got his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove off I shouted bon voyage and considered what my missus would tell me if I made the same blunder... I would never ever live it down!

Vehicle Misfuel Duncote - Duncote Wrong Fuel Drain
A woman from Duncote with her children in her diesel Mazda had put £50 of petrol at the service station. She phoned us weeping and extremely upset as she had never wrong fuelled before and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that all should be alright and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we got there she was still upset but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the children in the back."
