This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout West Yorkshire we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's just like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition to this, the urea is quite corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it right away. And most certainly be careful not to start up the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. Assuming you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases rather easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank laying in the rear of your garden full of aged, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few domestic and business premises in West Yorkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. No matter if the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we can empty it.

Re-Fueling Assistance

Out of fuel in Slaithwaite (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a comprehensive West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) and fill your car. They will be able to take care of the typical troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Fuel Removal Slaithwaite - Slaithwaite Fuel Removal

A gentleman had stopped near a street in Slaithwaite. His MG motor had stopped functioning and he had no idea what was awry till he realised he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle. He rang us to request a fuel drain and it was then when he explained to us: "I can not believe that I did not detect that I had put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He claimed that he had got very little rest the night before and that must have been the key reason why.
