Petrol in your diesel car in Carleton? You've come to the right place. We are here to assist you in this time of need and get you moving again with our expert fuel drain service.

It was around ten pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! James and me were relaxing there going over the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the next job that day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol station in Carleton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mercedes hire car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could return to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home satisfied and a lot less stressed. Another job in West Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any connected problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All around West Yorkshire we have identified more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not being aware of the way to use it (important: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We will help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your garden with old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business premises in West Yorkshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Carleton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your vehicle. They will fix any of the typical troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Carleton - Carleton Wrong Fuel

A motorist had broken down just off a street in Carleton. His Audi engine had ceased functioning and he had no clue what was awry right up until he realised he put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I can't believe that I did not realise that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He claimed that he had got no sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
