It was just after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were resting there talking about the recent golf rankings, ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Gateford Common and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite irritated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably can happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could reach the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so concerned. A fuel drain in Nottinghamshire done well in my mind!

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can resolve any connected issues.

AdBlue Contamination

In Nottinghamshire we have discovered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel may well contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations rather quickly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Got an old fuel container at the back of your garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and industrial properties in Nottinghamshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or possibly even several containers in an outbuilding, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

A gentleman had stopped off a road in Gateford Common. His Mazda engine had ceased running and he had no clue what was faulty until he noticed he had put petrol in his diesel car. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I can't believe that I didn't realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had got very little rest the day before and that could have been why.
