It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were resting there commenting on the recent sports results, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Dalton Parva and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota rental car. She was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the car into a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in South Yorkshire done well in my books!

Our Fields of Specialties:

Here are the top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All around South Yorkshire we are noticing a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (be aware: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

Now, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And certainly do not crank the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases quite expediently.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel tank laying in the rear of your premises containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in South Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a storage shed, assuming that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Dalton Parva (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a full South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your automobile. They will deal with the common troubles which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
