Services We Provide:

Here's a list of the incorrect fuel services we provide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout North Yorkshire we have seen a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not switch on the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you have started the car you would probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may well cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases pretty easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got a fuel container at the back of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Ripley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full North Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your automobile. They can also deal with any of the standard troubles which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe dead batteries caused by over-cranking.

A gentleman phoned us from Ripley to say he had foolishly pumped unleaded into his diesel Land Rover. "I can't believe it! How could I put petrol in my beautiful diesel car!"
