It was before 8 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were resting going over the recent tennis rankings, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Markington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel BMW lease car by mistake. She was very agitated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected area and, because it was only a short distance from the office, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in North Yorkshire well done in my books!

Do you or your employees often misfuel your vehicle? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout North Yorkshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you discover youself to be in this situation don?t panic! Call us, the UK?s Best fuel contamination business. Our experts have the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way promptly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important condition to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel is going to result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Remember that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying in the rear of the garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and industrial properties in North Yorkshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even some drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Markington (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home.

They are also able to deal with the usual issues that might go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.
