It was close to 7 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were sitting commenting on the recent football, ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Ulceby and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Audi lease car in error. She was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this sadly can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing as it was just a few miles off from our van, we were able to get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Lincolnshire done well in my books!

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Lincolnshire we are encountering an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained asap. And most definitely don't switch on the car - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel can easily bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases very easily.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir at the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Lincolnshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a garage, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Ulceby (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Lincolnshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
