It was after 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and me were seated talking over the weekend's footy results, at the ready for the seventh call for the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in North Hykeham and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel MG rental. She was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this often happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was just a short distance from the office, we could find her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Lincolnshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lincolnshire we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially stemming from people not knowing the right way to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us if it turns out you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can easily correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container laying at the rear of the garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial premises in Lincolnshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, if we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in North Hykeham (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive Lincolnshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to refill the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at cost) to fill your automobile. They will be able to handle the most common problems which may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as dead batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
