It was just before seven pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting there talking over the weekend's football, ready for the 6th job that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Wike and put petrol in a diesel Jaguar hire car. The unfortunate lady was rather affected by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, as it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off relaxed and less worried. One more misfuel correction in West Yorkshire done well in my opinion!

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout West Yorkshire we have found more and more examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And definitely do not start up the car - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you did start the car you may probably need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious issue to address in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases fairly easily.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically 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 situated close to a car parking spot we will be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank at the rear of the garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in West Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several drums in a garage, providing we can reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Wike (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a comprehensive West Yorkshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will handle the standard troubles which can go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe dead batteries due to over-cranking.
