It was around 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Mark and I were seated there commenting on the sports, ready for the 6th job that day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Anstruther and Cellardyke and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover rental car. The unfortunate thing was pretty agitated apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a few miles off from us, we could find the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. One more job in Fife done well in my mind!

Services Our Company Offers:

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

How to proceed in case you may have poured Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? AdBlue is a chemical that?s made out of a blend of ionized water (67.5%) and urea.It tends to be harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, particularly in cases where you run the engine with Adblue in your diesel fuel tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be injected into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, resulting in disastrous and costly harm to your car's fuel system.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly never turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. In case you did start the car you will likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we should be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to many domestic and industrial premises in Fife for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in an outbuilding, provided that we can access it, we can certainly empty it for you.
