It was after 10 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not given up on pouring! James and I were relaxing there going over the recent tennis, ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Mixenden and put petrol in her diesel Hyundai hire car in error. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could find the woman swiftly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive away relaxed and less worried. A fuel drain in West Yorkshire well done in my mind!

Below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Yorkshire we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partially a result of drivers not knowing how to use it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And most definitely don't turn over the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would in all probability need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank is likely to produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we are able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel tank at the rear of your garden containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and commercial properties in West Yorkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or even numerous containers in a storage shed, as long as we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Mixenden (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We perform a comprehensive West Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to re-fill your automobile in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) to fill your car. They are also able to deal with the usual troubles which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel Assist Mixenden - Mixenden Wrong Fuel Drain

A person phoned us from his residence on a close in Mixenden. He said, "My vehicle (a Lexus) is not running and is producing awful noises when I turn the ignition." He confessed that he put petrol in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting extra Diesel on top. We arrived quickly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel. He told us that he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to have it drained immediately.
