It was just after 8 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and me were sitting going over the recent football, at the ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Glasgow and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Hyundai rental in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated apparently, saying "I still can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles off from our van, we could arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got really soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Glasgow City done well in my books!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Glasgow City we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partially a result of people not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances fairly easily.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container placed at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and business properties in Glasgow City for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Glasgow (out of gas - as an American might say)? We run a complete Glasgow City Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill the car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with the typical problems which could come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Glasgow - Glasgow Fuel Drain

A customer had conked out off a road in Glasgow. His Audi engine had ceased operating and he had no idea what was the problem until eventually he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He called us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I put the incorrect fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had gotten zero sleep the day before and that must have been precisely why.
