It was just before ten pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there discussing the football, ready for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Lenton and put petrol in her diesel Jaguar rental car in error. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a secure spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and less apprehensive. One more job in Lincolnshire well done in my opinion!

We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have found an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of motorists not being totally sure how to work with it (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mostly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at once. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel may well bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations rather easily.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your garden full of aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and business premises in Lincolnshire 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 recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we are able to drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Lenton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to fix the most common problems that can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Lenton - Lenton Fuel Drain

A gentleman rang us from his house on a close in Lenton. He pronounced, "My car (a Jaguar) is not starting up and is making awful sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, did the drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He told us he'd be absolutely sure to advise people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to get it cleaned out right away.
