What a good night's sleep! 7:00 on a rainy Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel Land Rover in Gartcosh. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a backwater road en route to see her family. I got her location punched into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she said, "I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had only acquired it several days back when my old one, which I'd owned for over 30 years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant North Lanarkshire lady!

Services We Deliver:

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

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout North Lanarkshire we have discovered more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it immediately. And most definitely do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank may well produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations quite easily.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank lying in the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in North Lanarkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Gartcosh (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete North Lanarkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and refill the car. They will be able to deal with any of the typical troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.

I'd had a terrific day cycling on my off day and felt delighted the following morning as I set out to help a young family who were vacationing in Gartcosh. They had pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel in their Citroen, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself as I listened to the gal telling off her husband for being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs continuously in North Lanarkshire and that it's truly nothing at all to be anxious about, however he yet still got an ear bashing by his missus. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some proper fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would do to me if I made the very same mistake... I'd never hear the end of it!

All of our engineers are trained on the most current motor vehicles and their fuel systems. We show up at in excess of 4,000 wrong fuel removals on an annual basis in the UK (you bet, there are that many people today who do the same thing - you aren't by yourself). Our phone lines are open twenty four hours a day and every day of the week. Our technicians are on-call whenever you require them.


Recent Fuel Drains in Gartcosh

A few reviews:

We fairly recently had a phone call from a driver who had put the incorrect fuel in his Toyota in Gartcosh. He had ground to a halt on the road. "I was surprised at how speedy you guys were in having someone out to aid me after I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you ever so much". It goes without saying that we arrived rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival the technician said the motorist was fuming, but was grinning his face off after the fuel drain.

Petrol in Diesel Gartcosh - Gartcosh Wrong Fuel

A lady living in Gartcosh phoned us as soon as she tried to get her wrong fuelled car to her office. She had put unleaded in her diesel Ford and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she would be able to just fill up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the entrance of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and got it sorted inside an hour or so while she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely relieved you sorted my vehicle."

Fuel Rescue Gartcosh - Gartcosh Wrong Fuel Doctor

A man called us from Gartcosh saying he had piped the wrong fuel in his diesel Toyota. "Shocking! I can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car!" It took the specialist roughly fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel out of the vehicle. He totally cleaned the fuel system and put fresh fuel in the car. The customer was completely satisfied and it didn't cost him dealer prices to have the work properly completed.
