It was before 9 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Brian and me were resting there going over the footy results, at the ready for the seventh telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Astwith and put petrol in her diesel Nissan rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, saying "I still can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from our van, we could find the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. A job in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

Below are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we are finding progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can fix all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can easily contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases fairly easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Derbyshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Astwith (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill your automobile. They are also able to handle the most common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
