It was after ten pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were resting talking over the recent sports rankings, ready for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we received the phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Aberfeldy and filled petrol in her diesel MINI rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from the office, we could get to her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and much less anxious. A fuel drain in Perth and Kinross done well in my books!

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Perth and Kinross we are noticing more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as the product is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you find yourself in this predicament do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination business. Our engineers have the specialised competence and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations very simply.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in Perth and Kinross to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
