This is what exactly we do best.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
In Leicestershire we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not understanding the way to use it (important: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the vehicle.
So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course be careful not to start up the engine - not even to shift it into a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you would most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel will trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very expediently.
You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
Removal of Waste Fuel
Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden with old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in Leicestershire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.
Re-Fueling Service
Run out of fuel in Old Dalby (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a full Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to fill up your car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) to refill the car. They are also able to fix the standard troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Old Dalby - Old Dalby Petrol in Diesel
I'd had a perfect day golfing on my holiday and was feeling contented the next working day as I headed out to aid a new couple on vacation in Old Dalby. They broken down after filling the wrong fuel in their Citroen, and were close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the woman telling her husband off for being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this occurs regularly in Leicestershire and that it's actually nothing at all to fret about, and yet he still had an ear bashing by his wife. Poor lad. In any case, I drained the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. Watching as they drove off I shouted good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if I did the same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
