It was around ten pm on a Monday and though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing talking about the weekend's football, waiting for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Papley and filled petrol in her diesel Mercedes hire car. The poor lady was fairly agitated apparently, stating "I simply can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could go home to the hotel she was living in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off calm and much less worried. Another misfuel correction in Northamptonshire well done in my opinion!

Services We Deliver:

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

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that is made of a mixture of urea and ionized water.It is definitely disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, especially if you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started the Adblue is going to be injected into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will often produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases rather simply.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container sitting in the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and business premises 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 recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Papley (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your automobile. They will be able to take care of the most common issues that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
