Here are the top services we deliver to our customers.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Yorkshire we are finding a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel will likely lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations very swiftly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Management

Have an old fuel tank placed at the rear of your garden containing unwanted and old, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Colton (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a comprehensive West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill up the car. They will be able to handle the typical troubles that may come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
