It was just after eight pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were relaxing there discussing the tennis results, prepared for the next telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Maltby and put petrol in her diesel Mazda hire car in error. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe area and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to arrive at the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. A job in South Yorkshire well done in my mind!

This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over South Yorkshire we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not being totally sure the way to work with it (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely never turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the car you would almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations quite swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank in the rear of the garden containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many private and industrial properties in South Yorkshire for the purpose of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or possibly even numerous containers in a garage, assuming that we are able to reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Maltby (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your automobile. They will fix the normal troubles that might go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.
