It was after 10 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped raining! James and me were resting there discussing the weekend's rugby, prepared for the next job to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Dalton and filled petrol in her diesel Peugeot rental car. The unfortunate thing was quite affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was only a few miles from where we were, we could reach her rather quickly.

Our Areas of Competency :

This is exactly what we do best.

AdBlue Contamination

All over North Yorkshire we have identified a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not being aware of how to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In case you did start the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can certainly produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances rather easily.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank in the rear of the garden full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or even some drums in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it for you.

We are able to help to re-fill your automobile any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at cost) to refill the car. They can also fix any of the most common problems which can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries due to over-cranking.

Recent Fuel Drains in Dalton

Usual wrong fuel drain reviews in Dalton:

I am not actually overly keen on running Sundays, and the other day was no different. I had only just left the wife and kids after eating a wonderful roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was en route to help a gentleman because he put the wrong petrol in his Audi. He was stationed in Dalton and so I was there very quickly. As I arrived right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and failed to perceive I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought about any problems by running it?" I said that there should not be harm and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained immediately. It goes without saying that I removed the wrong fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and thus another happy client was able to continue their journey without any fuss. The man did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in North Yorkshire a little bit better in my opinion!

Fuel Drain Dalton - Dalton Wrong Fuel

A woman from Dalton with a full car of kids in her diesel Land Rover had filled her car with £20 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She contacted us crying and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that all should be okay and that she would be ready to go very quickly. When we arrived she was still distressed but as our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the little ones in the back."
