It was before 7 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting talking about the weekend's footy results, prepared for the next job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Dockroyd and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Porsche lease car in error. She was rather affected apparently, crying "I cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a short distance from our van, we could reach her rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. One more job in West Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Experience :

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over West Yorkshire we have noticed increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And certainly never start the motor - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel tank sitting in the rear of the garden containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial properties in West Yorkshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Dockroyd (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a comprehensive West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) to fill your car. They can also deal with the standard issues that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
