We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

In South Yorkshire we have discovered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from motorists not being aware of the way to work with it (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the car.

Now, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it at once. And absolutely don't switch on the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank may bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container laying at the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business premises in South Yorkshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a shed, as long as we are able to access it, we are able to empty it.

We can help to fill up the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

Wrong Fuel Carlton - Carlton Fuel Removal

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had been fairly dead up to now, and Mark and I were sitting reading several old newspapers. That was an unusual restful hour in South Yorkshire. Actually it was that quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump! The voice on the phone explained: "I have just finished my overnight shift and foolishly filled petrol in my Peugeot". We told him to inform us exactly where he was located and we headed out, getting to him in Carlton only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine. He thanked us profusely for coming so quickly. As we were heading back to the office we noticed two ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their delight.
