It was before ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were seated going over the footy, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Morthen and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Peugeot lease car by mistake. She was very distressed it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She managed to get the car to a safe space and, as it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and much less worried. Another fuel drain in South Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Our Areas of Expertise :

Listed below are our top services we offer to our customers.

AdBlue Contamination

In South Yorkshire we have encountered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of motorists being unsure of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Phone us in the event that you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will handle all types of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is going to lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of your premises full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and business premises in South Yorkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, providing we are able to access it, we could certainly drain it.

Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Morthen (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They will be able to deal with any of the usual problems which might accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Morthen - Morthen Fuel Drain

I had a terrific evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the next working day as I set off to assist a new family who were holidaying in Morthen. They'd stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their Volvo, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal telling her man off for actually being so confused. "How could you actually manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this situation occurs regularly in South Yorkshire and that it's actually absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching as they drove away I waved good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would personally never live it down!
