It was before eight pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were resting there talking over the recent golf results, prepared for the 8th telephone call to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Langwith Junction and put petrol in her diesel Hyundai lease car. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that these things sadly happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we could reach her without delay. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got extremely wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and much less concerned. A fuel drain in Derbyshire well done in my opinion!

Our Services:

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue Contamination

What to do in case you have put Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made of a mixture of ionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).Adblue is actually harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will be pushed into the fuel lines and will swiftly begin to crystalise, bringing about disastrous and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Langwith Junction (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a complete Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also take care of the common troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Langwith Junction - Langwith Junction Wrong Fuel

I had enjoyed a fantastic evening cycling during my off day and felt cheerful the next morning as I set out to help a young couple who were on vacation in Langwith Junction. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Ford, and were around an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this problem occurs on daily basis in Derbyshire and that it's nothing to stress about, but he all the same got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved good-bye and considered what her indoors would do to me if I made the same mistake... I'd personally never live it down!
