He told us; "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car. And the technician who came out to do the fuel drain was incredibly nice - he did not make me look an idiot."

AdBlue In Diesel

All over North Yorkshire we are encountering progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partly as a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most definitely be careful not to start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very swiftly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Removal of Waste Fuel

Have a fuel container lying in the rear of the garden containing out of date, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in North Yorkshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a garage, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Re-Fueling Service

Out of fuel in Thirsk (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to fill up the car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill the car. They will handle any of the normal troubles that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Petrol in Diesel Thirsk - Thirsk Fuel Removal

Last friday a motorist telephoned us when his Porsche ground to a halt on a road in Thirsk. He had inadvertently put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle and drove as far as the street before needing to pull up. It was still in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who resides locally, reached him in about 15 minutes. We managed to remove the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the car. "Genuine kudos to you for your immediate response, and in particular at 2 a.m., I appreciate it."


Recent Fuel Drains in Thirsk

A few of the more usual facts we see from the technicians in Thirsk:

We got a telephone call from a man whose Nissan had stopped on a street after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my car . You guys came out and sorted out the problem after my vehicle stopped." We drained the wrong fuel from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines completely afterwards and the gentleman could carry on with his sheduled delivery.

Vehicle Misfuel Thirsk - Thirsk Wrong Fuel Drain

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and nobody was around. It was fairly uneventful so far, and me and Ryan were loafing reading through a number of old magazines. That was an unusual calm time in North Yorkshire. It was indeed so quiet that when my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The person said: "I've only just completed my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in my Audi in error". I instructed him to tell us where he was located and we headed out, arriving in Thirsk only half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for arriving so promptly. While we were going back home we spotted two women at the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to help them change it, much to their elation.

Petrol in Diesel Thirsk - Thirsk Wrong Fuel

A gentleman rang us from his place on a road in Thirsk. He exclaimed, "My car (a Dacia) is not running and is producing very bad noises when I turn the key." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would solve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We got there promptly, carried out the fuel drain and filled it up again with fresh Diesel. He said after that he'd be certain to inform people not to fill up on top of the wrong fuel but to have it cleaned out right away.
