Petrol in diesel Asenby? We have the ability to service the Asenby community rather well mainly bacause one of our technical engineers resides close by and is as a result not far from the action.

We're merely a telephone call away.

It was just before seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting talking about the weekend's sports results, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Asenby and put petrol in a diesel Lexus lease car by mistake. She was rather troubled apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that these things happen. She was able to get the car into a safe spot and, because it was only a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the motel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and less stressed. Another misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my mind!

Do you or your drivers frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Yorkshire we have seen an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to use it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Contact us if it turns out you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will handle all kinds of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is likely to cause idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Got an old fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we can get to it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Asenby (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full North Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill up your car. They will deal with any of the most common troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Drain Asenby - Asenby Fuel Drain

A couple of days ago a young man contacted us right after his Chevrolet cut out on a road in Asenby. He had accidentally put the wrong fuel in the diesel motor and drove as far as the road before being forced to give up. It was actually in the early hours of the day and our technician, who resides nearby, reached him in approximately twenty minutes. We managed to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again in the car. "Thank you for your prompt response, particularly at 4 a.m., I really appreciate it."
