We're just a telephone call away.

It was before 5 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and me were seated going over the golf rankings, ready for the sixth call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Newington and filled petrol in her diesel Land Rover rental. She was pretty irritated apparently, stating "I can not believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from our van, we could arrive at her right away. The bad fuel was removed so she could get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and much less worried. One more fuel drain in Nottinghamshire well done in my books!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Nottinghamshire we have encountered a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to work with it (pay attention: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at once. And most definitely do not start up the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. In case you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can potentially bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel tank in the rear of the garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial properties in Nottinghamshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Newington (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to deal with the usual issues that could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
