We can assist you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Derbyshire we have discovered an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly due to motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol will produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations quite swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir in the rear of your garden full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Derbyshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Shelton Lock (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car. They can also deal with the most common issues which can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A man contacted us from his home on a road in Shelton Lock. He explained, "My vehicle (a Skoda) is not starting up and is making very bad noises when I turn the key."

We were on scene quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel.
