It was after 5 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting there discussing the golf rankings, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Holbrook and filled petrol in her diesel Vauxhall lease car. She was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from our van, we could find her fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was living in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off contented and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in South Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Services We Offer:
Here is a list of the incorrect fuel services we offer.
AdBlue In Diesel
What you should do in the event that you may have put Adblue into your Diesel fuel tank? It is definitely devastating to your car's fuel system, particularly any time you run the engine with Adblue in the tank. Once the engine has been started the Adblue will undoubtedly be pushed into your fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, causing serious and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.
If you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most certainly take care not to start up the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may most likely have to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very simply.
Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to several domestic and business properties in South Yorkshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we are able to drain it for you.
