It was around 6 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a rainless day, it had not ceased pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there commenting on the weekend's rugby results, prepared for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Pitsmoor and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Kia rental in error. She was pretty affected it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to get the car into a secure spot and, as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could find the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and much less worried. Yet another fuel drain in South Yorkshire well done in my books!

Our Areas of Competence :

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

AdBlue Contamination

All around South Yorkshire we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially due to people not understanding the way to use it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely never start up the vehicle - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations very swiftly.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank lying in the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in South Yorkshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can empty it for you.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Pitsmoor (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete South Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also handle the typical problems which could come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.
