It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the next call of the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Highfield and filled petrol in a diesel Volkswagen hire car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, also that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to get the car to a secure area and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from us, we could reach the woman swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and not so concerned.

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

In South Yorkshire we are discovering progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are suffering from AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is likely to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Have a fuel tank lying at the back of your premises full of old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business properties in South Yorkshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in an outbuilding, as long as we can reach it, we can drain it.
