These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Derbyshire we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from people not knowing the way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And certainly be careful not to start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances very quickly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container laying in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in a shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Hathersage Booths (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They will be able to fix the normal troubles which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Hathersage Booths - Hathersage Booths Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a terrific evening cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful the next working day as I set off to assist a young family who were away in Hathersage Booths. They'd pulled over after adding diesel in their Vauxhall, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal telling off her man for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing happens on a regular basis in Derbyshire and that it is nothing at all to fret about, nevertheless he yet still had his ear bent by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyways, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove off I mouthed bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the very same error... I would personally never live it down!
