It was just after six pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ray and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's footy results, waiting around for the seventh job to come in. Before long we got a call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Priestthorpe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Land Rover rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away satisfied and less worried. One more fuel drain in West Yorkshire done well in my books!

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Yorkshire we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not understanding how to work with 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 typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never crank the car - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In cases where you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel can certainly result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container lying in the rear of the garden with out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered 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 possibly even a number of containers in a shed, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Priestthorpe (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your car any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with any of the usual issues that may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.
