Wrong Fuel in Car Barnsley - Barnsley Fuel Drain

A fairly concerned driver phoned us from the Texaco petrol station at South Yorkshire to tell us that he put petrol in his diesel Honda; he wasn't actually certain how he'd done it. We advised him it was absolutely no problem and soon had our fuel drainer with him to clear the contaminated fuel from his tank. Having removed the contaminated fuel, he was subsequently back on the road. He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the gentleman who came to undertake the fuel drain was especially nice - he did not make me look like a plonker."

We deal with your car with our full registration and insurance. Additionally, our technicians are completely proficient and professional in working with the majority of car types.

Do you or your drivers usually misfuel your car? We can fix any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout South Yorkshire we are encountering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent thanks to motorists not being aware of how to to make use of (note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at once. And most certainly do not start the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will in all probability need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases rather easily.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to a number of privately owned and business properties in South Yorkshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we can reach it, we can drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Barnsley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the usual problems that can go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

It can't be fun being stranded in a automobile running on the wrong fuel on the street. Our most recent customer who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (Jaguar) in Barnsley encountered literally that kind of dilemma: "Obviously I wrongly put unleaded in my diesel car recently. I was so concerned about my mistake that I was actually in tears. Fortunately I shouldn't have concerned myself since you were marvelous in draining and cleaning my car."

Fuel Rescue Barnsley - Barnsley Wrong Fuel

A customer who had sadly put the wrong fuel in his diesel Kia phoned us for assistance at the Shell petrol station in Barnsley. He had decided to top up before going on to the local holiday park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put petrol rather than diesel which wasn't a smart way to begin to our holiday." It was certainly no challenge in any way for our technical engineer to go and perform the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their vacation.

Vehicle Misfuel Barnsley - Barnsley Wrong Fuel in Car

I had a terrific day cycling on my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a new family who were on holiday in Barnsley. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their Citroen, and they were close to half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smiled as I listened to the girl telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this takes place everyday in South Yorkshire and that it's truly nothing to be anxious about, however he all the same had an earful. Poor chap. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove away I shouted good bye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
