It was around eight pm on a Saturday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking over the tennis, waiting around for the 6th call to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Holbrook and filled petrol in a diesel SEAT rental car in error. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the car to a safe position and, since it was only a few minutes from our van, we could reach the customer quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and much less concerned. A misfuel correction in South Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

Our Areas of Competence :

Here's a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout South Yorkshire we are encountering a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And absolutely never start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases pretty simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden with aged, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in South Yorkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Holbrook (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a complete South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your automobile. They can also take care of any of the most common problems that can come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Holbrook - Holbrook Fuel Rescue

A gentleman had stopped off a road in Holbrook. His Renault engine had stopped functioning and he had no clue what was the problem until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not know that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got zero rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
