It was around 9 pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not ceased pouring! James and I were sitting there going over the rugby, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to come in. Eventually we had a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Ossington and filled petrol in a diesel Mercedes hire car. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to reach her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Assisting you get back on the road is our primary goal.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it in the event that you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made out of a mix of high-purity ionized water (67.5%) and urea.It is certainly disastrous to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be injected into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course do not start up the motor - not even to move it to a parking place. In case you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.
