Listed below are our top services we deliver to our clients.

AdBlue Contamination

All over North Yorkshire we are identifying a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it is like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously be careful not to start the car - not even to shift it into a parking place. In the instance that you have started the car you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car or truck parking spot we can access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the back of the garden full of old, useless or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several private and commercial premises in North 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 legally and safely. Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous drums in a garage, provided that we can get to it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Support

Out of fuel in Fishpool (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a comprehensive North Yorkshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can come to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the common issues which might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Wrong Fuel in Car Fishpool - Fishpool Fuel Drain

I appreciated a great day fishing during my holiday and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set out to help a young couple vacationing in Fishpool. They broken down after inserting diesel in their Hyundai, and were about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smirked while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass on a regular basis in North Yorkshire and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, but he in spite of everything got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!
