It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and me were seated there talking over the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Caunton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai rental car in error. She was rather distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, because it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to find her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got very wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off satisfied and not so worried. One more job in Nottinghamshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Nottinghamshire we are noticing increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of motorists not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Should you get in this situation don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Premium fuel contamination service. Our engineers possess the practical knowledge and working experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances very easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel container lying at the back of your garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Caunton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the typical issues that could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
