It was close to 6 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated there commenting on the rugby rankings, prepared for the next telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we received the call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Caunton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Nissan lease car by mistake. The poor lady was quite distressed apparently, telling me "I can not believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, because it was just a few miles off from our van, we could reach the customer quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire done well in my opinion!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Listed here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Nottinghamshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people not understanding the way to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Should you find yourself in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the technical skills and experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
