Vehicle Misfuel Lerwick - Lerwick Vehicle Misfuel

Just had a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a gloomy Saturday and we were on my way to help an older woman who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover in Lerwick. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was pulled up along a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel seeing that I had only just purchased it a few days ago right after my former one, which I'd had for more than twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Shetland Islands woman!

Listed below are our top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Shetland Islands we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of people not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank will often result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases quite quickly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank sitting at the back of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in Shetland Islands 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. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Lerwick (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Shetland Islands Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to refill your vehicle any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill your car. They will handle the most common problems that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
