It was around 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting talking about the weekend's rugby, prepared for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Rishworth and put petrol in a diesel Citroen rental by mistake. She was somewhat agitated apparently, crying "I can not believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to find the customer rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got really wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and not so anxious. One more misfuel correction in West Yorkshire done well in my mind!

Offered Services: Our Specialties:

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

AdBlue Contamination

All over West Yorkshire we have noticed progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to work with it (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it asap. And most certainly take care not to start the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you would almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got an old fuel container in the back of the garden with aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few privately owned and business properties in West Yorkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Rishworth (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the standard issues which can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Rishworth - Rishworth Petrol in Diesel

A customer had conked out just near a road in Rishworth. His Nissan motor had stopped working and he had no clue what was faulty until he realised he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle. He called us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he informed us: "I cannot believe that I did not realise that I put the wrong fuel in my car." He stated that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the night before and that must have been precisely why.
