It was close to five pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were seated there going over the weekend's sports, prepared for the next call to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling station in Clerk Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel Mercedes lease car. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to move the car to a protected space and, since it was just a short distance from us, we could arrive at the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got very wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and much less worried.

Our Areas of Experience :

These are the fuel problems services we can extend to you:

AdBlue Contamination

All over West Yorkshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Contact us if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to attend to different types of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank is going to result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Petrol in Diesel Clerk Green - Clerk Green Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a great afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling cheerful the next day as I set out to help a young family who were on holiday in Clerk Green. They had conked out after inserting the wrong fuel in their Chevrolet, and were around half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her hubby off for being so confused. "How could you even manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on quite frequently in West Yorkshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyway, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive off I mouthed bon voyage and pondered on what my wife would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd personally never live it down!
