It was just before 7 pm on a Wednesday and although we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting there talking over the recent football results, at the ready for the 8th call of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Brighouse and filled petrol in a diesel Jaguar rental by mistake. She was very troubled apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was just a short distance away from us, we could get to the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was removed so she was able to get back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less worried. One more job in West Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

All around West Yorkshire we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And of course never crank the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may probably need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol may well result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have a fuel container placed at the back of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in West Yorkshire to take care of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, as long as we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Brighouse (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to take care of any of the common issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brighouse - Brighouse Fuel Removal

A customer had stopped just near a road in Brighouse. His Jaguar car had ceased operating and he had no idea what was faulty right up until he realised he had put petrol in his diesel vehicle. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little sleep the day before and that must have been the reason.
