It was just before 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated there talking over the rugby, waiting around for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Hollinsclough and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Renault rental in error. The unfortunate thing was very irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things do happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected spot and, as it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we could find her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the hotel she was staying in.

Our Services:

Below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you have put Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that is made out of a mixture of deionized water (67.5%) and urea.Adblue tends to be damaging to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been started the Adblue will likely be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, resulting in serious and expensive harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases rather expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
