It was close to five pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not given up on raining! Mark and me were resting there talking about the recent footy results, waiting for the seventh job that day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Penistone and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel Toyota hire car in error. She was rather troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things sadly can happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. Yet another job in South Yorkshire well done in my mind!

Our Services:

This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

What you should do in case you?ve poured Adblue in a Diesel tank? It is actually disastrous to your car's fuel system, especially in cases where you started the car with Adblue in your fuel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the Adblue is going to be pulled into your fuel lines and will promptly start to crystalise, causing disastrous and expensive damage to your car's fuel system.

If you find you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it asap. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to shift it off the pump. Assuming you did start the car you will very likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol can easily contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Disposal of Waste Fuel

Got a fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to many privately owned and business premises in South Yorkshire to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even a number of containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to access it, we can certainly empty it.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Penistone (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive South Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill the car. They will be able to fix the typical issues which may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Penistone - Penistone Wrong Fuel

I had a fantastic day fishing on my off day and was feeling pleased the following day as I set out to help a new family away in Penistone. They'd broken down after filling petrol in their Smart, and they were around an hour's travel away. I turned up at their position and smirked as I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this goes on quite frequently in South Yorkshire and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he yet still got an earful by his wife. Unfortunate lad. Anyhow, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove off I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!
