It was close to six pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby results, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Portsoy and filled petrol in a diesel MINI lease car in error. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from the office, we could reach the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and a lot less worried. Another misfuel correction in Aberdeenshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel
Throughout Aberdeenshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not understanding how to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to one another on the vehicle.
So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
Any time you discover youself to be in this scenario don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our experts possess the specialised skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to deal with in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations very quickly.
You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Have a fuel container lying at the rear of the garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Aberdeenshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of fuel in Portsoy (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a comprehensive Aberdeenshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home.

They will deal with any of the common issues that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

A gentleman called us from his residence on a street in Portsoy. He said, "My vehicle (a Vauxhall) is not starting and is creating very bad noises when I turn the ignition." He said that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would solve the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel.

Fuel Removal Portsoy - Portsoy Wrong Fuel Drain
A lady driving in Portsoy phoned us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled automobile to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Ford and, like many before her, assumed that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it'd be fine. The car was coughing and then it died when she reached the entrance of her office. We promptly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved inside 60 minutes while she was at the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you repaired my vehicle."
Fuel Drain Portsoy - Portsoy Vehicle Misfuel
I had a great afternoon golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a young family who were holidaying in Portsoy. They conked out after adding diesel in their Land Rover, and the car was around an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal chastising her spouse for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you actually manage to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to clarify that this kind of thing occurs everyday in Aberdeenshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent by his better half. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted goodbye and considered what her indoors would ask me if I made the same mistake... I would never ever live it down!
