It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the next call to come in. Finally we got the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Sharow and filled petrol in her diesel Citroen rental. She was fairly affected apparently, saying "I can not believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, because it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and not so anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around North Yorkshire we have found a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it asap. And most definitely never turn over the car - not even to move it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and industrial premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose of draining 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 container, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few drums in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Sharow (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They can also fix any of the standard issues which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Sharow - Sharow Petrol in Diesel

A customer had broken down just off a road in Sharow. His Dacia motor had stopped operating and he had no clue what was awry until he noticed he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to get a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten absolutely no rest the day before and that could have been the reason.
