It was after 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were resting going over the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 8th job of the day to arrive. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Matlock Bank and put petrol in a diesel Chevrolet hire car. The poor thing was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that such things can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from us, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less stressed. One more job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

Our Areas of Competency :

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do in the event that you may have poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? AdBlue is a solution that is made out of a mix of high-purity deionized water (67.5%) and urea (32.5%).It is actually harmful to your car's fuel system, specifically in cases where you started the car with Adblue in the fuel tank. The moment the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly begin to crystalise, resulting in devastating and costly problems to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you may likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations rather easily.

Be aware that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in Derbyshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a shed, if we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Matlock Bank (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to refill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will handle any of the common troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Matlock Bank - Matlock Bank Fuel Rescue

A customer phoned us from his residence on a road in Matlock Bank. He explained, "My vehicle (a Citroen) is not running and is generating awful sounds when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then imagined he would fix the issue by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, performed the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us that he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to get it cleaned out immediately.
