Before you refill a tank near Bolsover that had water or diesel bug in it, find the cause: vents, seals and fill caps are the usual culprits. New fuel on a wet tank picks up the same problem.

Questions about contaminated fuel collection in Bolsover
Can you take fuel with AdBlue in it?
Yes. Tell us it is there and roughly how much; AdBlue is mostly water, so it reduces the recoverable fuel in a load from Bolsover.
Do I need to test the fuel first?
No. A description, photos and a look at a sample in a clear jar are enough for us to start.
What is diesel bug?
A growth of bacteria and fungi where water meets diesel. Tanks around Bolsover that have stood with water in them are where it usually turns up.
