It was just before seven pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were sitting there talking over the recent footy results, prepared for the 8th call of the day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Millhouses and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Volkswagen lease car. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to worry, also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing as it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to find the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and not so worried. Yet another fuel drain in South Yorkshire well done in my mind!

Our Fields of Expertise:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we give.

AdBlue In your Fuel

How to handle it if you?ve put Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is certainly disastrous to your automobile's fuel system, especially any time you have had the engine running with Adblue in the diesel tank. Once the engine has been started up the Adblue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will rapidly begin to crystalise, triggering catastrophic and expensive damage to your automobile's fuel system.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to relocate it from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you will in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel can easily contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your garden with aged, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of private and business properties in South Yorkshire to take care of taking away 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. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Run out of fuel in Millhouses (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a full South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your car or truck. They will deal with any of the most common problems that could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even dead batteries because of over-cranking.

Petrol in Diesel Millhouses - Millhouses Wrong Fuel

A couple of days ago a customer contacted us just after his Citroen died on a street in Millhouses. He had mistakenly put petrol in his diesel car and was only able to get so far as the road before being forced to pull up. It was in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who resides locally, reached him in less than a quarter hour. We managed to get rid of the wrong fuel and put fresh diesel yet again into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, especially at 4 a.m., I genuinely appreciate it."
