It was around eight pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and me were sitting there talking about the sports rankings, waiting around for the seventh call to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Clitheroe and filled petrol in a diesel Hyundai lease car in error. The poor thing was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, as it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could get back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Lancashire well done in my mind!

Provided Services: Our Specialties:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in case you may have put Adblue into a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is composed of a mixture of urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%).Adblue tends to be damaging to your car's fuel system, specifically any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If you find you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely do not start the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol may bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations pretty expediently.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Lancashire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Clitheroe (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your vehicle. They can also handle the standard troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
