It was just after 10 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were sitting talking about the football results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Great Hatfield and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Mazda rental. The poor lady was fairly agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things do happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was only a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. A job in East Riding of Yorkshire well done in my opinion!

If you have petrol in the diesel vehicle, or even diesel in the petrol vehicle (and remarkably many drivers do this at least once eventually) - we take care of it immediately. Wrong Fuel SoS' skilled engineers are on call 24 hours a day. Just call up our emergency number and one will come out, flush the wrong fuel and get you quickly back on your way.

These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout East Riding of Yorkshire we have seen a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to motorists not knowing how to work with it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is mostly ionised water, it is just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Call us in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will be able to correct every type of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the back of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial premises in East Riding of Yorkshire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or even several drums in a garage, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain it.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Great Hatfield (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete East Riding of Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill up your car or truck. They can also deal with any of the standard problems which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries due to over-cranking.
