It was after 8 pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were relaxing there talking over the recent golf rankings, at the ready for the next call of the day to arrive. Finally we got a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the BP petrol station in Litton Mill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel SEAT hire car. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, also that such things happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Derbyshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Specialties:

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

AdBlue In Diesel

What you can do if you have poured Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made out of a mixture of high-purity deionized water and urea (32.5%).It can be disastrous to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be squirted into your fuel lines and will rapidly start to crystalise, triggering devastating and costly damage to your car's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And definitely don't switch on the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you would probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel will often trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a garage, if we can access it, we can drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Litton Mill (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the most common troubles which could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.
