It was about eight pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Dan and me were sitting there commenting on the weekend's sports, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we had the phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Cambridge and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Volvo rental car in error. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I can not believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things unfortunately happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from our van, we could get to the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in West Yorkshire well done in my mind!

We can assist you with all these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around West Yorkshire we are discovering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most definitely do not start up the motor - not even to move it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to address in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations fairly easily.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel container at the back of your garden containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and commercial 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 get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, as long as we can access it, we are able to empty it.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Cambridge (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and fill up the car. They will fix the most common issues that may go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries caused by over-cranking.
