It was before six pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and me were relaxing discussing the recent tennis results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Bradgate and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty distressed it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to move the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the woman right away. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away relaxed and a lot less anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in South Yorkshire done well in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around South Yorkshire we have seen an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of people not being totally sure the right way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you discover youself to be in this position do not panic! Call us, the UK?s Number 1 fuel contamination business. Our technicians have the technical competence and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying in the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business properties in South Yorkshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Bradgate (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive South Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They can also fix any of the standard issues which can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
