It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing talking about the recent footy rankings, prepared for the seventh job of the day to come in. Finally we had the call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Holbeach and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia rental by mistake. The poor lady was fairly irritated apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe position and, because it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to reach the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living in. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and much less worried. Yet another job in Lincolnshire done well in my books!

Our Areas of Specialties:

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lincolnshire we have found progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly ionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you discover youself to be in this scenario don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers possess the specialised skills and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel can potentially trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden full of out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and business properties in Lincolnshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Holbeach (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to handle any of the normal problems which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Holbeach - Holbeach Fuel Drain

A gentleman called us from Holbeach to say he piped petrol in his diesel MINI. "Unbelievable! How could I put unleaded in my beautiful diesel car!" It only took our engineer about fifty minutes to fully drain the incorrect fuel from the vehicle. He thoroughly cleaned the fuel lines, filter and pumps and after that put clean diesel in the vehicle. The customer was happy and it didn't cost him car dealership rates to get the job professionally completed.
