It was just after 5 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were seated discussing the recent football, ready for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Hackness and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Citroen rental. The poor thing was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to move the car into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we could arrive at the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home contented and much less concerned. Another misfuel correction in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All over North Yorkshire we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it asap. And absolutely don't crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you would in all probability need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances rather easily.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in North Yorkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Hackness (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete North Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They are also able to deal with the usual troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, and even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

A motorist had broken down just near a road in Hackness. His Ford engine had stopped working and he had no clue what was the problem till he noticed he had put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He phoned us to request a fuel drain and that is when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I had put the wrong fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten virtually no rest the night before and that could have been why.
