This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over West Yorkshire we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And most definitely do not start the engine - not even to move it to a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you would likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases very easily.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to parking spot we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank lying in the rear of your premises with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to many private and commercial properties in West Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even a number of drums in a shed, providing we can access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Services

Run out of fuel in Swartha (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump price) to fill your car or truck. They will deal with the usual troubles that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Drain Swartha - Swartha Vehicle Misfuel

A man had stopped near a road in Swartha. His Chevrolet motor had stopped working and he had no clue what was awry till he noticed he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel car. He contacted us to request a fuel drain and that's when he said to us: "I cannot believe that I didn't know that I put the incorrect fuel in my car." He said that he had gotten absolutely no sleep the day before and that could have been the key reason why.
