Wrong fuel in your car in Beck Bottom? You've come to the right place. We are here to help you in this hour of need and get you going again with our professional fuel removal services.

It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Paul and me were resting there going over the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the 8th job of the day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Beck Bottom and put petrol in a diesel MG hire car in error. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things can happen. She managed to get the car into a protected position and, because it was just a few miles off from the office, we could find the woman right away. The wrong fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home relaxed and much less concerned. One more misfuel correction in West Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Yorkshire we are noticing increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where a person has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding the way to to make use of (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't turn over the motor - not even to shift it to a parking area. If you did start the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations very simply.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in West Yorkshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages.

Petrol in Diesel Beck Bottom - Beck Bottom Vehicle Misfuel

I had appreciated a wonderful day cycling on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the next day as I set off to aid a new couple holidaying in Beck Bottom. They had stopped after filling diesel into their Land Rover, and the car was around half an hour away. I arrived at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the gal berating her husband for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to explain that this situation takes place regularly in West Yorkshire and that it's actually nothing at all to be anxious about, but he still got an earful. Unlucky guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted bon voyage and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
