This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout South Yorkshire we are encountering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists not understanding how to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at once. And obviously do not start up the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations quite quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and commercial premises in South Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we are able to empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Potter Hill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill your automobile. They are also able to take care of any of the common problems that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel Doctor Potter Hill - Potter Hill Wrong Fuel in Car

I'd had a great afternoon golfing during my off day and felt cheerful the following day as I was en route to aid a young couple who were on vacation in Potter Hill. They broken down after filling diesel into their Hyundai, and the car was approximately half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked as I heard to the woman telling off her spouse for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation goes on regularly in South Yorkshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, even so he still got his ear bent by his wife. I felt sorry for the boy. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some correct fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted goodbye and wondered what my missus would ask me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

A few of the more usual things we see from the engineers in Potter Hill:

Now I'm not actually too excited about doing the job on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I had only just come away from home filled with a magnificent Sunday roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was off to assist a gentleman who had put the wrong petrol in his Dacia. He was somewhere in Potter Hill hence I arrived there rapidly. As I arrived right behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and did not realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about any kind of harm simply by starting it?" I revealed that truth be told there probably should not be any problems and also that I'd personally drain the fuel at once for him. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and so yet another happy client had the ability to continue their trip without difficulty. The guy couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in South Yorkshire that little better in my opinion!

Vehicle Misfuel Potter Hill - Potter Hill Wrong Fuel Assist

This was what we call the graveyard shift. It was roughly 3:30am and almost noone was about. It had become quite quiet thus far, and Mark and I were sitting looking through some old newspapers. It was an uncommon calm time in South Yorkshire. Actually it was indeed so relaxing that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The person on the phone explained: "I have ended my night shift and incredibly put petrol in my Skoda by mistake". We got him to tell us exactly where the car was situated and we set off, arriving in Potter Hill not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle. He thanked us for coming out so quickly. While we were heading back to the office we found two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.

Petrol in Diesel Potter Hill - Potter Hill Fuel Rescue

I had a great afternoon cycling during my afternoon off and felt delighted the following day as I was en route to assist a young couple who were on holiday in Potter Hill. They'd conked out after putting petrol in their Honda, and they were approximately an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and smirked while I listened to the wife telling off her man for being so daft. "Just how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this happens on a regular basis in South Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, and yet he yet still got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyhow, I removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if I made the very same error... I'd personally never hear the end of it!
