It was just before six pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Dan and I were resting discussing the weekend's football rankings, at the ready for the sixth job to arrive. Before long we received the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Buckley and put petrol in her diesel Honda hire car. She was quite troubled apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that things like this often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away relaxed and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Flintshire well done in my books!

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Flintshire we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the car.

Now, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you find yourself in this position don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the specialised know-how and working experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel may well cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the back of your garden containing aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several private and commercial premises in Flintshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in an outbuilding, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Buckley (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Flintshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car or truck. They will handle any of the most common problems that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
