It was just after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby rankings, waiting around for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Papley and put petrol in her diesel Mazda rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could get to her swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she could go home to the motel she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away calm and a lot less apprehensive.

Services We Offer:

Listed here are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

How to handle it in the event that you may have put Adblue in your Diesel fuel tank? It is certainly devastating to your car's fuel system, specifically if you run the engine with Adblue in your tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue is going to be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to devastating and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it right away. And definitely never start up the car - not even to shift it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel can result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to numerous domestic and commercial properties in Northamptonshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.
