It was just before seven pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not given up on raining! Mark and I were sitting there talking about the footy results, waiting for the next call that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling garage in Painsthorpe and put the wrong fuel in a diesel Fiat rental. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was just a short distance off from the office, we could get to the customer without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and not so stressed. A job in East Riding of Yorkshire done well in my mind!

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over East Riding of Yorkshire we have discovered progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination when someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree as a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the car.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And obviously don't turn over the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will probably have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances very simply.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

Got an old fuel tank lying in the back of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and industrial properties in East Riding of Yorkshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a portable bowser, or even numerous drums in a garage, if we are able to access it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Vehicle Misfuel Painsthorpe - Painsthorpe Fuel Removal

I had appreciated a perfect evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling cheerful the next day as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in Painsthorpe. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their BMW, and the car was approximately an hour's drive away. I arrived at their car and laughed to myself while I heard to the woman chastising her spouse for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this goes on on daily basis in East Riding of Yorkshire and that it is nothing to be anxious about, nonetheless he still got an earful. Unlucky chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
