It was after 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were sitting talking about the recent tennis results, waiting around for the 8th call to come in. In due time we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Luddendenfoot and put petrol in her diesel Land Rover hire car. She was fairly troubled apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things sadly do happen. She managed to move the car into a protected position and, since it was only a few miles away from us, we could get to her right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the Travelodge she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home satisfied and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in West Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

Below are the top services we offer to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In West Yorkshire we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (take note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because the product is mostly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel is likely to bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to a number of private and commercial premises in West Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a garage, as long as we are able to access it, we can drain it.
