It was just before seven pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and me were relaxing there talking over the sports, at the ready for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Worton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Chevrolet hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was fairly affected by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home calm and a lot less worried. One more job in North Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Below are our top services we give to our clients.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around North Yorkshire we are encountering increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to people not being aware of the way to to make use of (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Phone us if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will fix different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations very expediently.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir laying in the back of your premises with unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in North Yorkshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Run out of fuel in Worton (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a complete North Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your vehicle in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) and fill up the car. They can also deal with any of the usual issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even dead batteries caused by over-cranking.
