Our Services:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we deliver.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In West Yorkshire we have discovered progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to people not knowing the way to use it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained asap. And absolutely don't switch on the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you would likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir lying in the back of your premises full of old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in West Yorkshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

Run out of fuel in Potternewton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

Vehicle Misfuel Potternewton - Potternewton Wrong Fuel

I had a great evening golfing on the weekend and was feeling pleased the following morning as I headed out to help a young couple who were vacationing in Potternewton. They had conked out after filling petrol into their Kia, and the car was roughly half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their car and smirked while I heard to the wife chastising her spouse for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this problem takes place constantly in West Yorkshire and that it's nothing to fret about, nonetheless he still had his ear bent. Unlucky boy. Anyway, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would say to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!
