It was just before six pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Dan and me were relaxing commenting on the tennis results, waiting for the seventh call for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Lower Thurnham and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Hyundai lease car by mistake. The poor thing was very distressed apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance from our van, we could reach the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Lancashire well done in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Listed here are the top services we provide to our customers.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Lancashire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to use it (important: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily fix different types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations very expediently.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in Lancashire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Lower Thurnham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Lancashire Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to refill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the normal issues that can accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Vehicle Misfuel Lower Thurnham - Lower Thurnham Vehicle Misfuel

A motorist had conked out near a street in Lower Thurnham. His MG engine had ceased running and he'd no idea what was the problem right up until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and it was then when he said to us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I had put the incorrect fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten virtually no sleep the night before and that could have been the key reason why.
