It was after 6 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were seated discussing the footy, waiting for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Hillcross and put petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental in error. The poor lady was pretty affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this sadly happen. She had managed to get the car to a protected area and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and not so concerned. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my books!

AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Derbyshire we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the car you would most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can easily cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel container lying at the rear of your garden full of out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we are able to access it, we can drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Hillcross (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) and refill your car or truck. They will take care of any of the normal problems which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.
