Services We Offer:

We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue Contamination

All around West Yorkshire we have discovered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of people not knowing how to use it (take note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations fairly expediently.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several privately owned and business premises in West Yorkshire for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some drums in a garage, if we are able to access it, we are able to drain it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Garforth (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They are also able to fix the standard problems that can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Vehicle Misfuel Garforth - Garforth Wrong Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a fantastic evening golfing during my afternoon off and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I headed out to help a young family vacationing in Garforth. They'd broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their Smart, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I turned up at their location and laughed while I heard to the lady telling her spouse off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place all the time in West Yorkshire and that it is nothing to stress about, but he still had his ear bent by his wife. Poor guy. Anyhow, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed goodbye and considered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!


Recent Fuel Drains in Garforth

Stories from our own Garforth team:

It must be horrible breaking down in a car full of the wrong fuel halfway down the road. Our last customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (Skoda) in Garforth encountered literally that difficulty: "WrongFuelSOS.com's technician moved my motor from the live lane. He drained it and had it working once more within just a half-hour. Couldn't recommend you more."

Petrol in Diesel Garforth - Garforth Wrong Fuel

A driver from Garforth with a full car of kids in her diesel Ford had put £45 of petrol at the Shell service station. She called us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never wrong fuelled before and didn't know what could happen to her vehicle . We assured her that all would be fine and that she would be in action very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the youngsters in the back."

Wrong Fuel Garforth - Garforth Wrong Fuel Drain

Last friday a motorist telephoned us soon after his MINI stopped working along a road in Garforth. He had by accident put unleaded in his diesel vehicle and got to the street before having to stop. It was yet early in the day and our technical engineer, who resides close by, got to him in less than 10 minutes. We were able to take out the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel yet again into the vehicle. "Sincere kudos to you for your fast response, especially at 6 a.m., I truly am grateful for it."
