It was about 6 pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting going over the recent footy, ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Ballyclare and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Skoda rental in error. The unfortunate thing was very affected apparently, crying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things regrettably happen.

Our Fields of Expertise:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around County Antrim we have encountered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Any time you get in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our experts possess the technical expertise and working experience to have you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases rather easily.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Have a fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden containing aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and industrial properties in County Antrim to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even some containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to get to it, we can empty it.
