It was about 7 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated talking over the weekend's tennis, waiting for the 8th telephone call to arrive. Before long we had a call from a woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Harthill and put petrol in a diesel Dacia rental in error. She was very troubled apparently, saying "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably often happen. She was able to get the car to a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could find the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth it seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less worried. One more misfuel correction in North Lanarkshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Competence :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Lanarkshire we are noticing progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of people not understanding the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can attend to every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank placed at the back of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in North Lanarkshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a storage shed, providing we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Harthill (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full North Lanarkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill the car. They are also able to take care of any of the typical problems which can come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Harthill - Harthill Wrong Fuel

I'd had a fantastic afternoon fishing during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the next day as I set off to assist a young family who were on holiday in Harthill. They stopped after filling diesel in their SEAT, and the car was approximately an hour away. I arrived at their location and smiled while I listened to the woman telling her husband off for actually being so confused. "How could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on frequently in North Lanarkshire and that it's truly nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent. Unlucky boy. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
