Local Call-Out and Roadside Wrong Fuel Repair in Lumby

Contaminated fuel Lumby? We can easily support the Lumby area extremely well because one of our technical engineers resides locally and is for that reason a stone's throw from the action. If you've put petrol in your diesel car in Lumby we'll be glad to come out and do a complete fuel drain. Wrong fuel in diesel in Lumby shouldn't be a massive problem. We're simply a call away.

It was after five pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and I were resting there talking over the recent football rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Lumby and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Renault hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was fairly agitated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and much less anxious. One more fuel drain in North Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Services We Provide:

Do you or your employees usually misfuel your car? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

How to proceed if you may have poured Adblue in your Diesel tank? AdBlue is a liquid that?s made from a mixture of high-purity deionized water and urea.Adblue can be damaging to your vehicle's fuel system, especially any time you run the engine with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will likely be dragged into your fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, leading to serious and costly harm to your vehicle's fuel system.

Contact us if you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct all types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel tank will likely bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases fairly expediently.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a shed, providing we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Lumby (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill the car any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to refill your vehicle. They can also handle the usual problems that might go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.
