It was just after five pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Brian and me were resting there talking about the recent sports rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call to arrive. Before long we got the phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso filling station in Loughborough and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volkswagen rental. She was rather troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe area and, as it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could get to the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was staying in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Leicestershire well done in my books!

Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Leicestershire we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by people not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

Well, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most certainly don't start the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In case you did start the car you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel may trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather expediently.

You should know that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, if we can access it, we are able to drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Services

Out of fuel in Loughborough (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Leicestershire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your automobile in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to handle the standard problems that may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
