It was about six pm on a Saturday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's sports, prepared for the 8th call to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Taddington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Audi hire car. The unfortunate thing was quite affected apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was only a few miles from where we were, we could find the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. Another job in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.

AdBlue In Diesel

In Derbyshire we are noticing progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree due to motorists being unsure of how to use it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you get in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the practical skills and working experience to get you back on the road rapidly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases very simply.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container placed in the back of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and industrial properties in Derbyshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can drain it.

Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Taddington (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Derbyshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out 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 possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the normal issues that could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A couple weeks ago a customer contacted us when his Porsche cut out in the middle of a street in Taddington.

It was really in the early hours of the morning and our fuel drainer, who stays nearby, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We were able to remove the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel once again into the car. "Genuine thanks to you for your immediate response, particularly at 2 a.m., I really am grateful for it."
