It was just before 10 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! Mark and me were seated talking over the weekend's sports results, ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Before long we had a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Butterley and filled petrol in a diesel Toyota rental car in error. She was very troubled apparently, telling me "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am 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 worry, and that such things regrettably can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from the office, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. Another fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

In Derbyshire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out right away. And of course take care not to switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking place. If you did start the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel tank laying in the back of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Derbyshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Butterley (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will fix any of the standard issues which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, as well as dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
