It was close to 8 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting talking about the recent football results, waiting around for the 6th job of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Dringhouses and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Hyundai lease car by mistake. The poor thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from us, we were able to find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off satisfied and a lot less stressed. One more fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my books!

Services We Offer:

We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do if you may have put Adblue into your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a chemical made from a blend of urea (32.5%) and deionized water.Adblue can be harmful to your automobile's fuel system, specifically if you started the car with Adblue in the diesel fuel tank. Whenever the engine has been started up the Adblue will be squirted into the fuel lines and will quickly start to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive harm to your car's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will probably have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to many domestic and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dringhouses - Dringhouses Wrong Fuel Assist

I had appreciated a fantastic afternoon golfing during my holiday and felt pleased the following morning as I set off to help a new family who were on vacation in Dringhouses. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Ford, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their location and smirked while I heard to the lady telling her man off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing occurs constantly in North Yorkshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, even so he yet still had an ear bashing by his missus. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and wondered what my wife would ask me if I did the very same thing... I'd never ever live it down!
