It was about 5 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were sitting going over the sports results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Hawnby and put petrol in her diesel Kia rental car by mistake. She was very distressed it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this sadly do happen.

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

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

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over North Yorkshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the automobile.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And absolutely never turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can certainly lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Got an old fuel tank placed in the back of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even several drums in a shed, providing we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

We will help to re-fill your car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home.

Vehicle Misfuel Hawnby - Hawnby Fuel Rescue

I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful the following working day as I was en route to assist a young family who were away in Hawnby. They'd stopped after filling petrol into their Peugeot, and the car was roughly an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and laughed as I heard to the woman berating her hubby for being so confused. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass on a regular basis in North Yorkshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed good bye and pondered on what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the same blunder... I would never ever hear the end of it!
