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

AdBlue In Diesel

All over East Lothian we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to move it from the pump. Assuming you have started the vehicle you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in East Lothian for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in East Linton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a complete East Lothian Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car. They will be able to deal with the typical problems which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal East Linton - East Linton Fuel Removal

A guy had stopped near a street in East Linton. His MG engine had ceased running and he'd no idea what was the problem until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he told us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got virtually no rest the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
