It was before 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were resting there talking over the recent tennis, ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Treswell and filled petrol in a diesel Vauxhall rental by mistake. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to settle back and not to worry, and also that such things do happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was just a few miles off from where we were, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Nottinghamshire well done in my books!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Nottinghamshire we have discovered an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to motorists not being aware of the way to use it (please note: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you end up in this situation do not fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the specialised expertise and working experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel can trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many private and industrial premises in Nottinghamshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even some containers in a garage, if we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Treswell (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to take care of any of the typical issues which may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Treswell - Treswell Wrong Fuel

I enjoyed a terrific day cycling on my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the following morning as I was on the way to aid a new family who were away in Treswell. They stopped after putting diesel in their Chevrolet, and were roughly an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for being so silly. "Just how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this problem comes to pass quite frequently in Nottinghamshire and that it's really nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I drained out all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. While they drove off I shouted good-bye and thought about what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
