Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated issues.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you can do in the event that you have poured Adblue in a Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the fuel tank. As soon as the engine has been switched on the Adblue will be dragged into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly damage to your vehicle's fuel system.

Should you get in this scenario do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our technicians have got the practical competence and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel will often lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases very easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in Derbyshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.

A woman living in Derby phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had put petrol in her diesel Lexus and, like plenty before her, imagined that she would be able to simply fill up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run no problem. The car was chugging and then it stopped when she arrived at the the front of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and got it repaired in one hour whilst she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you fixed my car."
