It was around seven pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Ray and me were sitting there talking about the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the 6th job that day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Baythorpe and filled petrol in a diesel Porsche rental car in error. She was very distressed apparently, stating "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and less stressed. A fuel drain in Lincolnshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue Contamination

All over Lincolnshire we are finding a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Any time you discover youself to be in this position don?t panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the technical skills and working experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir laying at the back of the garden containing old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Lincolnshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Out of fuel in Baythorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They can also take care of any of the common troubles which can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
