Our Areas of Competency :

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over North Yorkshire we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to use it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And of course never start up the motor - not even to move it from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases rather swiftly.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination 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 an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel container placed at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Overton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill 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 just at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will fix the common troubles which can go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as dead batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Overton - Overton Wrong Fuel Drain

A person rang us from his residence on a close in Overton. He said, "My car (a SEAT) is not starting up and is producing awful sounds when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car however reckoned he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We arrived promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled him up once more with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be sure to educate people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to get it drained right away.
