It was just before eight pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and me were relaxing commenting on the weekend's football results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Stonehouse and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Hyundai hire car. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could get to the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less stressed. Another fuel drain in South Lanarkshire well done in my mind!

Services We Provide:

Do you or your employees often misfuel your car? We can solve any related problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do if you?ve poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue can be devastating to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. The moment the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be injected into your fuel lines and will immediately begin to crystalise, triggering devastating and expensive problems to your vehicle's fuel system.

In the event that you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And most definitely don't start the car - not even to move it off of the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly simply.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in South Lanarkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Run out of fuel in Stonehouse (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete South Lanarkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to fix any of the normal troubles that can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Stonehouse - Stonehouse Fuel Rescue

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon hiking during the weekend and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I headed out to help a new family vacationing in Stonehouse. They'd pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their MINI, and the car was approximately half an hour away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the girl chastising her husband for actually being so foolish. "Precisely how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this situation goes on constantly in South Lanarkshire and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his wife. Poor boy. In any case, I drained all the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed hasta la vista and wondered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I would personally never ever live it down!
