Our Fields of Specialties: Services Our Company Offers:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In West Yorkshire we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily fix all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will often cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to parking bay we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container sitting in the rear of your garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many domestic and commercial premises in West Yorkshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a shed, if we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Birkby (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill your automobile any time you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the usual troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as dead batteries as a result of over-cranking.

A woman had broken down on a street, Birkby just after having misfueled. She was in tears and very agitated as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car.

Recent Fuel Drains in Birkby

Tales from our own Birkby employees:

Now I'm not ever too interested in running on weekends, and last week was the same. I'd only just departed home after eating a tasty dinner prepared for me by the missus, and I was off to sort out a guy who filled the incorrect petrol in his Mitsubishi. He was stationed in Birkby and so it wasn't long before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the car and stepped out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my concentration on other considerations and didn't ascertain I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought on some harm because of starting it?" I determined that generally there should not be damage and also that I would personally drain the contaminated fuel as soon as possible for him. As expected I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and thus one more satisfied motorist was able to continue his journey without any subsequent bother. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what helps make carrying out work on weekends in West Yorkshire just that small bit easier to me!

Wrong Fuel Drain Birkby - Birkby Fuel Rescue

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2am and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were relaxing looking through a couple of old newspapers. It was an uncommon peaceful moment in West Yorkshire. It was so relaxing that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer said: "I finished my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in the Land Rover in error". We got him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was and we headed out, arriving in Birkby not as much as an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. While we were heading back to the depot we spotted two young ladies on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their elation.
